Transporter bridge near Hamrštejn, Transporter bridge in Chrastava and Liberec, Czech Republic.

The transporter bridge spans 23 meters across the Nisa River, featuring a suspended cabin that moves horizontally using a manual rope-pulling mechanism.

The bridge was constructed in 2010 following severe flooding, marking the introduction of the first transporter bridge in the Czech Republic.

The bridge stands near Hamrštejn Castle ruins, connecting visitors to a medieval fortress that controlled regional forests from the 14th to 16th centuries.

Travelers reach the bridge by taking a five-minute train ride from Liberec to Machnín Hrad station, followed by a short forest walk.

This structure belongs to a select group of twenty movable bridges worldwide, with only eight remaining operational transporter bridges in existence.
