    Stampetta Bridge

    Bridge

    The Stampetta Bridge is a railroad viaduct south of Vrhnika, Slovenia. It is named after the engineer that built it. The Stampetta Bridge is originally a brick and stone structure that was built in 1856 as part of the Austrian Southern Railway. During the Second World War, the bridge was badly damaged. It was first damaged in 1941, but repaired by the Royal Italian Army's Ferrovieri Engineer Regiment. Sabotage attacks were later carried out by Partisan forces in October 1943, June 1944, and September 1944 in order to disrupt German supply lines. The bridge was repaired from 1945 to 1946. During the Yugoslav era, the Railway Workers Hiking Club (Planinsko društvo Železničar) of Ljubljana held an annual walk across the Stampetta Bridge.
