Rapla stone bridge

The Rapla stone bridge over the Vigala River was built in the late 19th century to replace an old wooden bridge. This renovated double-deck bridge is unique in Estonia – in 2009, a new reinforced concrete bridge was constructed above the historic one without resting on the old structure.

The bridge is 27.5 meters long and 8 meters wide, located near the church. The two-arched bridge with round vaults is made of limestone, while the icebreaker nose is built from granite. As a symbol on the coat of arms of Rapla Parish, the bridge holds significant cultural heritage value.

According to folklore, mermaids can be spotted in the Vigala River. Do you dare to come and discover them?
