| Abstract: |
In the 20th century, many railway lines in Poland were closed, destroyed, or liquidated. However, many bridge structures remain, which have undergone partial transformations and changed their functions. Some are viewpoints, and some are footbridges on trails created in the places of former railway lines. Many of them are still waiting for a second life. |
