The Nagold Viaduct is a two-lane road bridge that leads the Nagold bypass in the course of the federal highway 28 in a 500-meter-long curve over the valley of the Waldach . Today the viaduct is one of the landmarks of the city of Nagold.
It consists of 17 round arches with a maximum height of 22 m, a clear width of 21 m and a width of 8.34 m. The construction of the first eleven round arches made of stamped concrete began in 1938 when the viaduct was still outside the city.
In 1941 construction had to be interrupted because of the Second World War. The remaining six arches were built from reinforced concrete between 1953 and 1956 , whereby the pillars were made with hollow cross-sections and partially only 40 cm thick concrete walls, instead of the arched facades made of concrete slabs with round cutouts and the bridge deck as a plate-beam bridge. With this significantly lighter construction, a simpler foundation was also possible. Extensive concrete renovations were carried out in 2009 and 2010.
