Moerputten Bridge, Railway bridge in 's-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands

The Moerputten Bridge extends for 585 meters in length and 3 meters in width, crossing over the peat lake Lange Putten near 's-Hertogenbosch.

Construction of this railway bridge began in 1881 and served the Lage Zwaluwe-'s-Hertogenbosch railway line from 1887 until its closure in 1972.

The bridge received monument status in 1995, leading to its acquisition by Staatsbosbeheer in 1997 and subsequent restoration to original condition in 2004.

Since 2011, visitors can access the bridge via a walking path that connects the Jeroen Bosch Hospital in 's-Hertogenbosch to the town of Vlijmen.

The structure stands 7.5 meters above Amsterdam Ordnance Datum and was designed with specific openings to accommodate seasonal flooding from the Meuse River.
