Permanent collection

The Bridge of Glass carries three installations over railway and highway: the overhead Seaform Pavilion, the blue Crystal Towers and the cabinet-like Venetian Wall. The bridge is open, but the Seaform Pavilion was damaged by vandalism in late 2025 and may not be fully repaired.

The work

Parts of the crossing are covered; the rest is open to the weather.

Before you go

Keep the pedestrian route clear while looking up.
