Rail transport bridge Trier-Pfalzel, Railway bridge in Trier-Pfalzel, Germany.
The Trier-Pfalzel rail bridge is a steel structure spanning the Moselle River to connect two sections of the Koblenz-Trier railway line in Rhineland-Palatinate. Its arched design forms a recognizable landmark in the regional landscape.
The bridge was built as part of the Koblenz-Trier railway line that has connected the region since the mid-1800s. It has supported both passenger and freight traffic on this important transport route ever since.
The bridge represents a meeting point between industrial infrastructure and regional identity, marking the connection between urban Trier and its surrounding communities.
The bridge can be viewed from nearby riverbanks or from adjacent rail lines where trains pass regularly. Visitors can observe it from several vantage points, especially while traveling on trains along the route.
The steel construction features symmetrical arches designed to minimize resistance against wind and water flow while maintaining structural strength for heavy rail traffic.
