Tips

Designed by engineer José Antonio Fernández Ordóñez, the work was completed after his death by his son Lorenzo and opened in 2004. It is a very visual and impressive construction, resembling a large dragonfly, and is finished with a cladding of Lapacho wood, specially treated to prevent people from slipping on it. This modern pedestrian bridge, built between the Abandoibarra Walk and the Avenue of the Universities, next to the Deusto University, is dedicated to the priest Pedro Arrupe from Bilbao, a renewer of the Society of Jesus who died in Rome in 1991.

Or, as it is called there, "the gateway", to access the University of Deusto.

The bridge leads straight to the Iberola Tower. It's impressive too.
