Ravenna Bridge

Ravenna Bridge is the name of a viaduct on the Höllental Railway in the Black Forest. It crosses the Ravenna Gorge, which flows into the upper Höllental Valley.

To meet the demands of rail traffic - heavier locomotives and higher speeds - the old Ravenna Bridge was replaced by the current one on August 26, 1926.

This is a masonry stone viaduct with a new arch and a 20-meter arch width, which also straightened the track and shortened it by 38 meters. The new brake is 36 meters long, 224 meters wide, and has a wind speed of 12 meters. The arches must be anchored up to 30 meters deep in the ground in some cases.Baca lagi
