Railway bridge over Woliborka in Nowa Ruda

The Railway bridge over Woliborka is a substantial stone structure with three arches spanning about 148 meters across the river valley. It connects two key sections of rail line 286 and forms a distinctive landmark in the landscape southwest of Nowa Ruda.

Construction of this bridge took place between 1879 and 1880 as the railway network in Lower Silesia expanded rapidly. It was part of the strategic infrastructure development that enabled transport of raw materials from the surrounding mining areas.

The bridge represents the industrial development of Lower Silesia, connecting communities through the establishment of reliable transportation infrastructure.

The bridge is not easily accessible from the road but remains visible from several paths in the area that run through the valley. Best appreciated on a clear day when the stone arch details and surrounding landscape are clearly visible.

The bridge structure demonstrates engineering techniques from 1879, featuring specific architectural elements that supported the growing mining industry.
