SBB-Sitterviadukt, Railway bridge in Bruggen-Winkeln, Switzerland.
The concrete arch bridge spans 190 meters across the Sitter River, connecting both sides with a double-track railway line and a pedestrian pathway.
Built in 1925 to replace the original 1856 iron bridge, this structure marked a transition from metal to concrete construction in Swiss railway infrastructure.
The bridge received national recognition as a cultural heritage site, demonstrating the engineering capabilities of Swiss railway construction in the 1920s.
The structure carries trains on the Winterthur-St. Gallen line while offering a separate path for pedestrians and cyclists on its southern edge.
Located 63 meters above water level, the bridge contains five symmetrical arches, each extending 30 meters in length across the valley.
