Bridge of village Bubël/Bublje

8GJ2GMF3+98

The bridge was built over the river Mirusha/Miruša, which connects the village of Bubël with Çupevë. The Bridge of Bubël/Bublje is typical of arched bridges from the 18th and 19th centuries in the region, built from local materials. The number of arches and the footpath were adapted to the construction site, while the gutters and drainage windows were a hydro-engineering necessity because there were frequent floods in this area. The bridge has four arches. The central arch has a diameter of 8.35 m, while the side arches measure 3.85, 3.0 and 1.65 m. The length of the bridge is 30 meters, and the width is 3.2 meters. The bridge also has two waste windows built into either side of the main arch. Except for the small arch, the other three arches are built with two rows of vaults made of local stone. The entire bridge is built of black stone, while the footpath is paved with river stones and shale at both ends.
