Stone bridge in Putim, Road bridge in Putim, Czech Republic.

The stone bridge stretches 24.90 meters in length and 6 meters in width, constructed with robust stone materials across the Otava River.

The bridge was constructed during the reign of Ottokar II of Bohemia in the 13th century, with the river being redirected underneath after completion.

The structure received recognition as a Czech cultural monument in 1989, marking its architectural and historical importance within the national heritage.

The bridge maintains its original function as a road crossing point, connecting different sections of Putim for both vehicle and pedestrian traffic.

The bridge was built on dry land first, and then the Otava River was redirected to flow beneath it, demonstrating medieval engineering methods.
