Winterhafenbrücke, Railway bridge across the Danube Canal in Simmering, Austria.

The Winterhafenbrücke spans 168 meters across the Danube Canal, connecting the Donauländebahn with the Donauuferbahn railway lines through a single-track crossing.

The original bridge from 1880 remained intact until April 1945, when German forces destroyed it during the final stages of World War II.

The bridge received the Brunel Award in 2011 for its contribution to railway infrastructure design and engineering excellence in Austria.

The electrified railway line supports approximately 70 freight trains daily, linking industrial areas along both sides of the Danube Canal.

The reconstruction of the bridge finished ahead of schedule in 2008, replacing the previous structure that stood unused for over 60 years.
