Railway bridge by the Citadel

[edit]

The Railway bridge by the Citadel is a railway steel bridge over Vistula in Warsaw, Poland.

First crossing in the location was constructed in 1875 as a double-decked road-rail steel bridge and was the second permanent river crossing after the Kierbedź Bridge. Between 1905 and 1908 another bridge was build directly beside the first one to its north. It was designed to carry railway fraffic, so the 1875 brige could be solely dedicated to road traffic
