The Green bridge over Sava is Zagreb’s oldest bridge, carrying the capital’s traffic since 1939. Its historic significance is that it had the widest spanning bridge arch of all of railway bridges in Europe when it was first built.
It owes its nickname - the Hendrix bridge - to graffiti simply saying “Hendrix”, which, despite the city council’s best efforts, kept reappearing on the bridge’s side.
The perseverance of the anonymous graffitist has led to the people of Zagreb adopting the Hendrix bridge as the informal name for the bridge. In 2015, a petition to rename the bridge was created, and the city council approved of the new name - however, the graffiti had to go and was replaced by a light installation.
