Minnesund Railway Bridge, Railway bridge in Eidsvoll Municipality, Norway

The Minnesund Railway Bridge stretches 362 meters across Mjøsa Lake with 13 spans, featuring a combination of truss and arch engineering designs.

Built in 1879, this railway bridge served as a vital link on the Dovre Line connecting Oslo to Trondheim until its closure for train traffic in 2023.

The bridge holds the Kulturminne ID 110597, marking its status as a protected structure within Norway's engineering and transportation heritage collection.

Following renovations in 2023, the bridge transformed from railway infrastructure into a dedicated pathway for pedestrians and cyclists crossing Mjøsa Lake.

The bridge contains twelve supporting spans with its longest section measuring 82 meters, demonstrating advanced engineering capabilities of 19th-century Norwegian construction.
