Grubentalbrücke, Railway arch bridge in Goldisthal, Germany.
The Grubentalbrücke is a railway arch bridge in Goldisthal's valley that carries two tracks across a gorge. The structure features two separate concrete supporting legs with a deck that varies in width along its length.
The bridge was completed in 2013 as part of a new high-speed railway line connecting two major cities. It was built to solve the challenge of carrying rail traffic across a deep valley.
The engineering team from Schlaich Bergermann and Partner received the Ulrich-Finsterwalder Engineering Prize in 2015 for their work on this structure.
The bridge is best viewed from nearby viewpoints in the valley area, especially from trails that run through the surrounding landscape. Daytime visits offer the clearest views of the structure and the depth of the gorge below.
The structure stands out for its two separate concrete arches instead of a single traditional arch design. This uncommon approach allows faster train speeds while creating a more refined appearance across the deep valley.
