Jezernice Viaduct, Railway stone bridge in Jezernice, Czech Republic

The Jezernice Viaduct consists of two parallel railway bridges across the Jezernice stream valley: an 1842 brick viaduct and an 1873 stone viaduct, together 426.44 m long with 42 arches (35 of 7.59 m span, 7 of 5.69 m). After the 1998–2001 reconstruction, reinforced-concrete arches with frost-resistant brick facing carry two tracks.

Construction started in 1842 as part of the Emperor Ferdinand Northern Railway to bring rail transport through this difficult area. The bridge became an important link for moving goods and passengers across the region.

The structure reflects engineering methods from the 1800s and shows how railway builders crossed difficult terrain with stone and skill. Such bridges shaped the landscape and remain part of how people experience travel through Moravia today.

The bridge can be viewed from nearby roads and paths that run below or near it, giving good views of the full structure from the valley. Walking around the surrounding area offers several spots to see how the arches meet the landscape.

During the 1998–2001 rebuild, engineers found the stone bridge's arches were only filled in, not load-bearing, so the structure was taken down to the piers and the vaults remade in reinforced concrete. The work won the Ministry of Transport's Bridge Work of the Year 2001 award.
