Stříbro bridge (Czech: most ve Stříbře) is a Renaissance stone five-arched bridge spanning across the river Mže in Stříbro, Czech Republic. The bridge has one preserved passage tower, built between 1555 and 1560 by Benedict Volch of Ferrol. It was part of the access road to the town of Stříbro from Plzeň and Prague. Today the bridge is designed for pedestrian traffic only.
It was declared a Czech cultural monument in 1958 and has been part of the Stříbro urban monument zone since 1992.
