Iron Bridge, Railway bridge in Henichesk Raion, Ukraine.

The Iron Bridge extends 100 meters across the Tonky Strait, connecting mainland Ukraine to the Arabat Spit through metal construction.

Austrian engineer Friedrich Roth designed this railway bridge during World War I, with construction starting in 1915 and official opening in 1951.

The bridge represents an engineering achievement where workers assembled its metal components mid-air without additional support structures.

The bridge functions as a transportation link between regions while providing a spot for local fishermen to gather throughout the year.

The structure employs the Waagner Roth system, using nuts and bolts instead of welding for rapid assembly without supplementary supports.
