The Municipality of #Horsens has acquired a special #tourist attraction of great cultural and historic value. The 13.4 meter tall steel grid bridge from 1899 that was built across the #Gudenå creek as part of the private railway from Horsens to #Bryrup. It was hidden in 1925 within a dam structure but once again discovered during preparations of a plan of action favoring the aquatic environment in 2013. When the privately owned, narrow-gauge railway bridge was constructed in 1899, it led across the broad and roaring Gudenå. At its time it was the tallest steel grid bridge in #Scandinavia. The project was done by the construction firm Hoffman, Hansen & Co. The bridge cost a neat total of 30.000 Dkr (4.388 USD) and was inaugurated on Saturday 22nd of April, 1899. The trip between Horsens and Bryrup was an attraction. For 1.65 Dkr (0.25 USD) you could travel 3. class on ’Denmark’s most beautiful railway’. A trip took two hours and 15 minutes. • • • • • #visitdenmark #visithorsens #travel #travelphotography #familyphotography #familygoal #familytravel #mytraveladventures #jakobsenstraveladventure #cutieindenmark (at Horsens, Denmark) https://www.instagram.com/_mytraveladventure_/p/BwklgXBnqPv/?igshid=stp2zkay18xz
