Kashkan Bridge, Ancient stone bridge in Khorramabad County, Iran
The Kashkan Bridge stretches 326 meters across the Kashkan River with fourteen piers and twelve vaults connecting both sides of the valley.
The bridge construction dates back to the fourth century AH, with inscriptions linking it to Abul Najm Badr ibn Hosnavieh between 389 and 399 AH.
The bridge inscription, originally carved into a mountain nearby, now resides in the Falak ol-Aflak Museum, preserving its historical documentation.
The structure incorporates local river stones and limestone materials with mortar and plaster, creating durable piers that resist humidity and erosion.
Each of the twelve vaults between the bridge piers functioned as rest areas for travelers, forming an integrated caravanserai system.
