The Velké Morava bridge connects the Moravian municipality of Mikulčice in the Hodonín district and the Slovak municipality of Kopčany in the Skalica district across the Morava river. The pedestrian bridge, planned since 2006, shortened the route for pedestrians and cyclists between the most important monuments in the village, the Slavic hill fort in Mikulčice, and the Church of St. Margaret of Antioch by more than 10 km. The steel jetty opened in 2019. It measures 143 meters in length, almost 5 meters in width and 9 meters in height. The construction planner was the company Novák & Partner. Possible names of the pedestrian bridge were suggested by the public in the first round via social networks and emails of the South Moravian Region and the Trnava Autonomous Region. The regions chose two names from the proposed names, Lávka Velké Morava and Lávka svaté Margéty, for the public to vote on via the regions' social networks. The results were announced by the regions in August 2020, after the name Lávka Velké Moravy won in both votes (86% of votes in the vote of the South Moravian Region and 79% in the vote of the Trnava Autonomous Region).
