Did you know that 53 years ago the Stach Bridge in Znamirowice was built, which is the largest structure in the world constructed by a single person? Do you know the history of this place?
The reason Jan Stach built his bridge on his own was the lack of an access road to his farm. The only possible access was through a neighbor's road, who forbade Stach from using it. Therefore, the farmer built his own 500 m long road and constructed a sandstone bridge over a deep ravine. The construction took 3 years. Jan Stach's extraordinary determination that led to the creation of this structure was widely described and caused the bridge to become a well-known local attraction, often visited by tourists.
The structure is 13 m high, 20 m long, and 7.5 m wide. The stone walls on both sides of the bridge are built in an arch line, providing the structure with proper stiffness and durability.
The bridge is located only 2 km from NOI Resort
