The Hasseløy
bridge, or the Baker island bridge connects Haugesund mainland and an island
beeing an important part of early Haugesund (1830 -).
Todays bridge was ready
for use in 1954. The first bridge was finished in 1872. On this picture
we can see where it started on the island side just right of the little,
red house.
Just right of the new bridge
a large shipyard, Hauge ship yard, was an important part of establishing
Haugesund as a ship building town and a shipping town. Today this area
is used as a museum. The large white house under the bridge is called the
Ferkingstad house, and is part of the Dokken museum.
The waterway is the northern
part of the sound or strait Smedasundet. Just left of this picture we find
Haugesjøen, and north of that the strait Haugesund.
