Ženijní můstek

Ženijní můstek, Military bridge in Prachatice District, Czech Republic.

The engineer bridge over the Řasnice stream near the abandoned Dolní Cazov settlement consists of four M2-Treadway deck sections: two metal walkways about three metres long and half a metre wide, laid side by side to carry vehicles.

American military engineers built this crossing in April 1945 to help Allied tanks move across the Řasnice River during the final push to liberate the region. It stands where liberation forces first entered Czechoslovak territory from the German side.

The bridge is tied to the vanished settlement of Dolní Cazov, which stood about 300 m from the state border; the road over the Řasnice led there. The first American tank reached Strážný on 1 May 1945, a few days after the 26 April crossing. The site is named after the Řasnice stream and the military engineers (ženisté) who assembled the span.

The bridge is open and accessible year-round, providing a solid crossing for visitors exploring this boundary area. Information about the site can be obtained from the municipal office in the nearby Strážný village if you have questions before your visit.

The bridge is not on the border itself: the former Dolní Cazov settlement lay about 300 m inside Czechoslovak territory, and the first American tank reached Strážný only on 1 May 1945. The span consists of four M2-Treadway deck sections, two metal walkways roughly 3 m long and half a metre wide.
