Ozimek Suspension Bridge, Historic suspension bridge in Ozimek, Poland.
The cast iron suspension bridge spans 31.5 meters across the Mała Panew River with four chain cables supported by two towers on each side.
Constructed between 1825 and 1827 by Malapane Steelworks, this structure represents the second oldest wrought iron suspension bridge still standing in Europe.
The bridge design by engineer Karl Schottelius demonstrates the industrial capabilities and engineering expertise of 19th century Polish metalworkers and craftsmen.
Following extensive renovations from 2009 to 2010, the bridge now serves as a pedestrian crossing with enhanced steel cables supporting a wooden deck.
The structure contains 1600 iron elements hand-forged from 57 tons of cast iron and 14 tons of steel, maintaining its original form through nearly two centuries.
