The David Hall Bridge – called Davidshalls Bron in Swedish – crosses over the Södra Förstadskanalen (South Suburban Canal). It was originally a swing bridge before becoming a permanent structure in 1880. In 1938, it was named after the David Hall Inn. This dancing pavilion, coffeehouse, circus and entertainment venue was located here from 1862 through 1886 and owned by David Lenander. Today, this cement platform and quay on Södra Vallgatan offers busy shoppers a place to rest and enjoy the view of the waterway.
