List of rainbow crossings

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


This is a list of rainbow crossings or rainbow crosswalks installed in cities around the world as symbols of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Many originally started in the 2010s in cities around the world, some began as temporary installments, but many rainbow crossings have since been adopted by cities as permanent installments to celebrate the LGBTQIA community.

Some have been subject to attacks by people committing hate crimes and vandalism and had to be subsequently repaired.
