The White Bridge (Turkish: Akköprü) was a Roman bridge across the river Granicus in Mysia in the north west of modern-day Turkey. Presumably constructed in the 4th century AD, it belonged in Ottoman times to the important road to Gallipoli on the Dardanelles. The structure was praised by early European travellers for its fine construction and marble facing, but was plundered for building material during the 19th century.

| - Die Weiße Brücke (türk. Akköprü) war eine spätantike Brücke über den Fluss Granikos (Biga Çayı) in Mysien in der heutigen Nordwesttürkei. Die vermutlich im 4. Jh. n. Chr. errichtete Brücke gehörte in osmanischer Zeit zur wichtigen Küstenstraße nach Gallipoli an den Dardanellen. Das Bauwerk erregte aufgrund seiner sauberen Ausführung und prächtigen Marmorverkleidung die Aufmerksamkeit früher europäischer Reisender, fiel aber im 19. Jh. Steinraub zum Opfer. (de)

- Il Ponte Bianco (turco: Akköprü) era un ponte romano attraverso il fiume Granico in Misia, nel nord-ovest dell'odierna Turchia. Presumibilmente costruito nel IV secolo, ai tempi dell'Impero ottomano apparteneva all'importante strada verso Gallipoli sui Dardanelli. La struttura fu lodata dai primi viaggiatori europei per la sua raffinata costruzione e il suo rivestimento di marmo ma, come molti monumenti antichi, fu saccheggiata per ricavarne materiale edilizio durante il XIX secolo.
