The Mazelaarsbrug in Dordrecht is a historic, manually operated swing bridge dating from after 1868 and is now a national monument. The bridge consists of a cast-iron frame with baluster railings and a wooden deck, spanning the entrance to the Maartensgat between Korte Geldersekade and Mazelaarsstraat.

The Mazelaarsbrug is located between the Maartensgat and the Leuvehaven in Dordrecht. The latter flows into the Oude Maas. The bridge was built in 1868 and has a wooden bridge deck and cast iron baluster railings. The bridge owes its name to the sack carriers, mazelaars, who carried sacks of corn here that were shipped from the Maas. The sack carriers' house at the bridge was a place where the mazelaars divided up the assignments. The large bell was rung when another load of corn had to be unloaded. The Mazelaarsbrug in Dordrecht is still operated manually by our Harbour Master and connects the Maartensgat marina with the city centre.
