St Anna Tunnel -inside

Following up on yesterday's post this is a picture from half way in the St Anna Tunnel, a 572 m (1,876 ft) long passageway for pedestrians and cyclists. It was built underneath the Scheldt in 1931-1933 to link the old centre of Antwerp with the left bank.

St Anna Tunnel entrance

Here we are taking the first of two original 1930's clanking wooden escalators to go down 31 meters under the riverbed to enter the Antwerp St Anna Tunnel, a pedestrian passageway underneath the river Scheldt.
