Veresk Bridge
The Veresk bridge (Varisk) is a bridge in Iran . It was constructed mostly by Austrians before World War II by leadership of an engineer named Walter Aigner , constructed during the reign of Reza Shah . It is located in the Veresk district of Savadkuh County , in Mazandaran province .
During World War II , it was known as the Pol-e Piroozi ("The bridge of victory") . The bridge stands at 110 m (360 ft) tall and its arch measures 66 m (217 ft) long . The bridge serves the Trans-Iranian Railway network in Northern Iran .
The Veresk bridge in Iran connects the railway between Tehran and the Caspian Sea region . It is located in Mazandaran’s Veresk district of Savad Kooh county , 85 kilometers south of Ghaemshahr and connects two of the mountains in the Abbas Abad region . The bridge is one of the masterpieces of the Danish engineering firm Kampsax , (consisting of mostly German and Austrian engineers) serving the Trans-Iranian Railway network in Northern Iran . The construction of this bridge included craftsmen of many nationalities , including many Italian . The Master Carpenter for the construction of the lumber concrete forms was Giacomo Di Marco , from the Friuli region of Italy , and detailed in the book he authored . It has been said after finishing the bridge , people had a fear that the train wouldn’t be able to pass the narrow bridge and that it would break . As a result , the engineer and his family stood under it when the first train passed the bridge (local accounts claim that Reza Shah had asked them to do so anyway) .
Near the bridge is a memorial structure built in memory of all the construction workers who lost their lives in the course of building the Veresk Bridge and its nearby tunnels . The Chief Engineer , Austrian Walter Aigner , following his wishes , is buried in the local cemetery of Veresk . Under the bridge is an underground tunnel through which trains pass after crossing the bridge and gradually dropping altitude and before pulling into the train station . During World War II , it was known as the Pol-e-Piroozi , or the bridge of victory . During the course of the war , Reza Shah was asked by Hitler to blow up all tunnels and bridges , including the Veresk Bridge , on Iran’s railway lines in order to delay the transfer of goods and reinforcement troops to the north for the Russians . He furthermore promised to replace and reconstruct all of such demolished structures following the Germans’ victory in the war . Reza Shah rejected the request . Today trains connecting Tehran to Gorgan or Sari pass over this bridge an average of 4 times a day .
