Campomorone viaduct, Railway bridge in Pontedecimo, Italy.
The Campomorone viaduct is a railway bridge that crosses over the Verde valley. The structure spans around 430 meters and rises about 58 meters above the ground, with a series of sections that support the tracks.
The bridge was built in the 1800s as part of expanding rail connections through the Liguria region. It solved the problem of crossing mountainous terrain and remains in use today.
The structure shapes how the valley looks and shows the way infrastructure adapted to mountainous land. It remains a visible part of the region's daily rhythm as trains pass through.
The best views of the bridge come from the valley floor or nearby hillsides. You can see it from different angles in the surrounding area, and it is especially clear from a distance.
The bridge connects two sides of the valley and made continuous rail service possible through this mountain area. Many travelers pass over it on trains without noticing how boldly the structure spans the ravine.
