Smržovka Viaduct, Railway bridge in Smržovka, Czech Republic
The Smržovka Viaduct is a railway bridge in northern Bohemia featuring multiple stone arches that cross a valley and connect two rail sections. The structure sits on massive stone piers with metal framework supporting the tracks overhead.
The bridge was built in 1893 and marked a major step forward in connecting the northern Bohemian rail network. It has carried rail traffic for over a century and remains a key part of the regional transportation system.
The viaduct represents a cornerstone of Czech railway engineering, attracting photographers and train enthusiasts who document its structure throughout the seasons.
The best viewing spot is from the road below the viaduct or from the surrounding hillsides that offer clear sightlines. Trains on the Liberec-Harrachov line pass regularly, and you can watch them crossing at certain times of day.
The structure stands as an engineering achievement from the late 19th century, maintaining its original architectural elements while serving modern rail traffic.
