Description

In this episode of Prague Off the Beaten Track, we visit the Výtoň railway bridge—an unmissable steel landmark just below the Vyšehrad cliffs. For more than 120 years, its sweeping arches have carried trains across the Vltava while quietly becoming part of daily life for locals. Once threatened with demolition, the bridge now has a new lease on life as Prague balances heritage, transport, and identity.
