That sucks. I still harbored dreams of one day visiting the bridge. Should have applied to the UN to brand it as a World Heritage Site or something :(

Between 2010 and 2011 the entrance of the house of Agnes disappeared.
If you look on Google Street View, click on the "history" you can see the difference too.

Thanks to http://www.oddych.sk/fa/ who photographed the house in 2002. I believe is the only photo of the entrance there.

I have curiosity why Lucas took this house and not some more near of film's studios.
Who had in 1998 this house? A friend, property of film's Studios,…???

I recall reading somewhere that the house was chosen because of the balcony.
I don't remember anything else about it, I guess it was probably rented from the owners to do the external scenes.
The internal scenes were done in a studio I expect.

"Tomorrow demolished "Show Me Love Bridge"
The bridge between Sylte and Lextorp will soon be a thing of the past.

The night demolished the bridge where Rebecca Liljeberg (Agnes) and Alexandra Dahlström (Elin) stands and watch the cars in Lukas Moodysson's film Show Me Love (1998).

Today was the process of breaking down the railings on the bridge at full speed.

- We have good autumn weather to work in, "says Fredrik Ågren who picked the bottom rails together with Bengt Karlsson.

The entire area under the bridge will be closed to car traffic at 22 tonight. During the winter, road construction on the E45 and the construction of the new bike and pedestrian bridge that exist simultaneously. Until then, pedestrians and cyclists once referred to the tunnels under the road at the mosque and Holmes Road"

I have been discover that the bridge in google earth is the real bridge d'Agnes i Elin, not the new. Because the last image of satelit was in 2009, before it was demolished in 2010.
For this I went wrong
