Sechsbogenbrücke, Railway bridge in Weimar, Germany

The Sechsbogenbrücke spans 152 meters across the Ilm Valley, featuring six stone arches that rise to a height of 38 meters.

Constructed between 1873 and 1875, this bridge connected the railway lines between Weimar and Jena, linking three different German states of that period.

The bridge represents a prime example of 19th-century engineering achievement in Thuringia and stands as a protected heritage monument.

The structure remains an active railway connection and can be accessed through local hiking trails in the Webicht forest area.

The bridge foundations incorporate massive stepped supports at both ends to distribute the weight of the structure and its railway loads.
