Историческая справка

In 1806 a pontoon crossing site previously installed near Grenadyorsky Bridge was transferred to the location of the present-day Sampsonievsky Bridge. In 1822 that crossing site got its modern name after Bolshoy Sampsonievsky prospekt. 
In 1847 a wooden double-lock-framed thirteen-span pile bridge drawn in the second span on Vyborg Side (Vyborgskaya storona) was built in its place. The bridge was 242 metres long and 12.7 metres wide. Each drawing of the bridge was performed manually. During overhaul of Sampsonievsky Bridge in 1889 the number of its spans was increased to seventeen. The bridge length increased by 13 metres and width by 5.5 metres. The drawing span was moved to the middle of the bridge and cast iron posts with lamps were installed on the supports. By the beginning of the 20th century Sampsonievsky Bridge fell into disrepair, and a temporary wooden detour bridge across the Bolshaya Nevka with a drawing span was installed downstream. The old Sampsonievsky Bridge was dismantled and tram rails were laid across the new one. 
In 1923 the detour bridge got the name of Most Svobody (Freedom Bridge). In 1937 the bridge underwent an overhaul, wooden girders and lifting frames were replaced with metal structures. In 1955-1958 a modern Most Svobody (Freedom Bridge), which nowadays is known as Sampsonievsky, was built by Lenmostostroy Construction Group upon the project developed by Lengiproinzhproekt Design Institute. The project was developed, in particular, by Vladimir Vladimirovich Demchenko who previously participated in building of the Road of Life, as well as of Volodarsky, Obukhovsky, Ushakovsky and other bridges, and by Lev Aleksandrovich Noskov who previously built Obukhovsky, Dvortsovy, Semyonovsky and other bridges.
In early 2000s Sampsonievsky Bridge has undergone overhaul and in 2013, due to construction of a traffic interchange on Vyborg Side, the length of the bridge was reduced to 193 metres.
