Stádlec Suspension Bridge, Chain bridge in Stádlec, Czech Republic

The 157-meter-long suspension bridge features four chains arranged in two pairs, supported by two stone pylons measuring 13 meters in height.

Originally constructed in Podolsko in 1848, the bridge was carefully dismantled in 1960 and reconstructed at its current location in 1975 to prevent submersion.

The bridge stands as the last remaining Empire-style chain bridge in the Czech Republic, designed by architect Vojtěch Lanna the Elder.

The bridge allows passage for vehicles under 1.5 tons, while maintenance includes a mobile platform underneath and an electronic system monitoring wood moisture.

Following a 2021 renovation, the bridge received oak timber from Croatia and underwent technical upgrades to ensure its structural preservation.
