Hexenbrücke, Abandoned railway bridge in Sakhalin, Russia.

The Hexenbrücke railway bridge extends across the landscape in Sakhalin Oblast, featuring metal construction elements from the early twentieth century engineering standards.

Constructed and inaugurated in September 1928, the bridge formed an essential component of the transportation infrastructure during the regional development of Sakhalin.

The name Hexenbrücke, meaning Witch Bridge, reflects local folklore traditions and adds to the mysteries surrounding this structure in Sakhalin.

The bridge structure remains inaccessible to regular traffic, requiring special permissions and safety equipment for any close examination or photography.

The bridge's location at coordinates 46.98012°N, 142.130738°E places it in an area where Russian and Japanese architectural influences intersect.
