Drawbridge
A drawbridge is a movable bridge structure that can be raised or lowered to allow passage of boats underneath, commonly used over waterways.
Fun Fact
Medieval drawbridges, like those at 12th-century European castles such as the Tower of London, could lift up to 60 degrees using counterweights of stone-filled wooden boxes, allowing ships to pass while defending against attackers.
