The former narrow-gauge railway bridge over the Brda River, or rather over its oxbow lake, as this is the part of the Brda River that was left by the side during the construction of the Koronowo Reservoir and is practically standing water, something you can "hear, see, and feel." The bridge has been renovated, of course, but it's a structure from 1895, situated approximately 18 meters above the water level, 120 meters long, and to this day holds the distinction of being the highest narrow-gauge railway bridge in Europe. The narrow-gauge railway itself ceased passenger service in 1969 and officially ceased operations in 1992.
