Vizcaya Bridge

The Vizcaya Bridge, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Spain, is an iconic transporter bridge completed in 1893, designed by architect Alberto de Palacio. It stands as a remarkable feat of industrial engineering, blending iron construction with innovative technology to ferry passengers and vehicles across the river via a suspended gondola. Recognized for its historical and architectural significance, it symbolizes the ingenuity of the late 19th century and remains operational today.
