            Erasmusbrug
De Erasmusbrug is naast de Willemsbrug de tweede brug over de Nieuwe Maas in het centrum van Rotterdam en is vernoemd naar de Nederlandse priester en humanist Erasmus
De Erasmusbrug is ontworpen door Ben van Berkel (UNStudio) en opgeleverd in 1996. De 284[2] meter lange tuibrug heeft een 139 meter hoge geknikte asymmetrische stalen pyloon, waaraan de brug de bijnaam "De Zwaan" dankt. Tussen de Kop van Zuid en de pyloon is er een 89 meter lange basculebrug voor schepen die niet onder de tuibrug door kunnen. Deze basculebrug is de grootste en zwaarste basculebrug in West-Europa
