Stampetta Bridge

The Stampetta Bridge (Slovene: Štampetov most, German: Stampetta-Viaduct[2][3]) is a railroad viaduct south of Vrhnika, Slovenia.

[4][5] The Stampetta Bridge is originally a brick and stone structure that was built in 1856 as part of the Austrian Southern Railway.

[4] It was first damaged in 1941, but repaired by the Royal Italian Army's Ferrovieri Engineer Regiment.

[1] Sabotage attacks were later carried out by Partisan forces in October 1943, June 1944, and September 1944 in order to disrupt German supply lines.

[1] During the Yugoslav era, the Railway Workers Hiking Club (Planinsko društvo Železničar) of Ljubljana held an annual walk across the Stampetta Bridge.
