Old Railway Bridge, Steel truss railway bridge across Sava River, Belgrade, Serbia.
The Old Railway Bridge is a steel truss structure crossing the Sava River and linking different sections of Belgrade. The span stretches 377 meters and uses an intricate framework of metal beams to support its load.
The bridge opened in the late 1800s as part of the Belgrade-Niš railway line and served as the city's main crossing over the river. It was damaged and rebuilt several times after conflicts in the 20th century.
The bridge represents Serbian railway heritage and stands as a testament to the engineering achievements of industrial transportation development in Belgrade.
Trains use this bridge regularly to connect Belgrade with other Serbian cities. The crossing is reserved for rail traffic, so visitors can view it best from nearby waterfront areas or streets along the Sava.
The bridge functioned as Belgrade's sole railway crossing over the Sava River for 86 years until the construction of additional crossings in 1979.
