Hi
85 years ago this wonderful narrow gauge (1000 mm) bridge was covered inside a dam across a river in central Denmark.
But last year they started to dig the dam away so the river could flow free again, and look what they found:
It has now been restored as an pedestrian bridge, called the "Reed Bridge" or the "Golden Gate"
