-The current steel bridge was preceded by a wooden bridge in the same location. The old wooden bridge was built after a great fire in 1807. It was a [[bascule bridge]], which was opened for the boat traffic. It was replaced in 1904 by the new steel bridge.
-==History==
-{{Unreferenced section|date=December 2019}}
-The Small Bridge is the oldest bridge in Zrenjanin. It connects the town center with the [[Mala Amerika]] quarter. It was built in 1904, the same year as the [[Eiffel Bridge, Zrenjanin|Eiffel Bridge]], often called "The Eiffel's bridge". There are some indications that the Small bridge was also designed in [[Gustave Eiffel|Eiffel]]'s studio (it is similar to some bridges in [[Timişoara]]).
-The bridge's first official name was "Franz Joseph I Bridge" ("Most Franje Josifa" in Serbian, "Franz-Josefs Brücke" in German, or "Ferencz József Hid" in Hungarian), named after Austro-Hungarian emperor [[Franz Joseph I of Austria|Franz Joseph I]]. This bridge also had a movable middle part, to accommodate boat traffic on the [[Begej]] river.
+Today's [[steel]] bridge was built in 1904, on the site of an older movable wooden bridge, when it was named [[Franz Joseph I of Austria|Franz Joseph]] Bridge ({{Lang-sr-Cyrl|Мост Францa Јозефa|Most Franca Jozefa}}, [[German language|German]]: {{Lang|de|Franz Josefs Brücke}}, [[Hungarian language|Hungarian]]: {{Lang|hu|Ferencz Jozsef híd}}), and after [[1919]] it took the name Karadžić Bridge.
-After World War I, new authorities renamed it to "Караџићев мост" (Karadžić's Bridge), named after [[Vuk Karadžić]]. This name did not stick; among Zrenjanin citizens it simply remained "Мали мост" ("Small Bridge").
+The length of the Bridge is 31 meters, width 9 meters and height 5.5 meters. It is decorated with a regular arch construction in the form of a section of a circle.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Mali zeleni most – Zrenjanin|url=https://listzrenjanin.com/mali-zeleni-most/|access-date=2022-10-31|website=listzrenjanin|language=sr}}</ref>

-In the year 1985 the bed of the [[Begej]] river was moved and three lakes were made of its old bed; the bridge was left without the river. It now crosses one of the lakes, but it did not lose its significance. It is still one of the Zrenjanin symbols, of the century-old striving of its citizens to span the river, to enlarge and develop the town on its both banks.
