Hranice Viaducts, Railway viaducts in Hranice I-Město, Czech Republic.

The Hranice Viaducts are three parallel railway bridges over the Velička valley by Hranice na Moravě station. The oldest, a brick bridge from 1844–1846, is 448.5 m long with 32 arches, the highest 11.38 m. A stone bridge of 426.5 m with 32 arches was added in 1873, and a concrete bridge of 434.3 m with 30 arches in 1910–1939.

The first brick viaduct was built over the Velička valley in 1844–1846 for the k.k. privileged Northern Railway of Emperor Ferdinand, with up to 2,500 workers and about 20 deaths during construction. A parallel stone bridge followed in 1873 to double the track, designed by Ludwig Schiele and Karl Hummel. Work on a third concrete bridge began in 1910, halted in 1914, resumed 1915–1918 using Italian and Russian prisoners of war, and was only completed in 1939.

The bridges are a cultural monument of the Czech Republic, designated in 2007. The blue hiking trail from Hranice na Moravě station toward Lipník nad Bečvou and the red trail toward Potštát both lead to them, and cycle route 6139A connects from the station to routes 6139 and 6058. The brick bridge, now without its track, is the one walkers reach on foot.

The viaducts lie just past Hranice na Moravě station on the Přerov–Bohumín line; a blue hiking trail runs from the station toward Lipník nad Bečvou and a red one toward Potštát, and cycle route 6139A links to routes 6139 and 6058. The oldest brick bridge now carries no track, so walkers can approach it on foot.

The 1873 stone bridge stands only 2.5 m from the 1846 brick one, and the two touch at shared piers; concrete slabs later covered the gap. The 1910 concrete bridge, 5 m away, is joined to its neighbours by footbridges. Look for the differing arch counts: 32, 32 and 30.
