Oskars Kalpaks Bridge in Liepaja has returned to its normal operating schedule after temporary film-related restrictions concluded

Filming for the international film project on Oskars Kalpaks Bridge has been completed, and the bridge has returned to its normal operating schedule.

Oskars Kalpaks Bridge is one of the key elements featured in the series, which has been filmed in Liepāja over several days. The series is based on The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, the world-famous novel by Swedish author Stieg Larsson.

Jonas Špokas, Location Manager for the upcoming series, noted that Oskars Kalpaks Bridge is one of the most significant elements and one of its most visually striking filming locations. He also emphasized that Liepaja offers a highly diverse environment that is particularly well suited to film production.

Special thanks go to port businesses and the residents of Karosta for their understanding, cooperation and patience. The film project has demonstrated Liepaja's ability to host and deliver international-scale film productions. This creates greater opportunities to attract new film, arts and creative industry projects in the future, generating long-term economic and reputational benefits for both the city and the region.

Film productions of this scale make a significant contribution to raising Liepaja's international profile.
