Overview
Built in 1816, this cast-iron pedestrian bridge over the Liffey takes its name from the ha'penny (half-penny) toll once charged to cross it. One of Dublin's most photographed landmarks, its white arched structure and old-fashioned gas lamps are iconic. Lovers once attached padlocks here, though this is now banned to protect the bridge. It's a key link between Temple Bar and the north bank. Free to cross. 2-minute walk from Temple Bar.
Travel Tips
The bridge is especially photogenic when lit up at night. Buskers often perform right on the bridge.
