The Jizera railway bridge is a railway bridge on the cog railway line Tanvald-Harrachov in the Czech Republic that was built between 1899 and 1902. Its main purpose was to connect the Liberec and Jablonec regions with western Silesia. In 1992, the 12 km section between Tanvald and Harrachov was declared a cultural heritage site. It is known as "Kořenov Toothed Rack Rail" (or in Czech also "Polubenka") – and features a unique more than four-kilometer long two-track Abt rack system. The Jizera bridge is the best known construction on this railway line. It consists of a steel construction and brick pillars.In 2014 the Czech National bank issued a 5000 CZK commemorative gold coin as part of the Bridges in the Czech republic series. The coin was designed by Vladimír Pavlica.
