Diabelski Most w Czernej, Medieval stone bridge in Czerna, Poland.
The Devil's Bridge in Czerna is a stone bridge from the medieval period that spans a valley with eleven arches. The thick pillars supporting these openings and the overall height of the structure demonstrate solid engineering that remains visible in its ruins.
Discalced Carmelite monks built this bridge between 1671 and 1691 to connect their monastery to the main road. A collapse of the central arch in 1889 caused permanent damage to the structure.
The name comes from local legends about supernatural gatherings said to happen beneath the arches. These stories remain part of how people speak about this place today.
You can reach the ruins on foot using marked hiking trails that run through the surrounding area and offer good viewpoints. Free parking is available nearby, and the best time to visit is during dry weather when the paths are easier to walk on.
The structure resembles Roman aqueducts with its massive arch system, showing how this building style appeared in the region. Remnants of four saint statues that once decorated both entrances still remain visible among the ruins today.
