Napoleon Bridge over the Soča River near Kobarid

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

The old Napoleon Bridge was built in 1750, gaining its name from when Napoleon's troops marched across it to get to Predel Pass. It was later destroyed in WWI by Austrian soldiers, rebuilt by the Italians in wooden and iron iterations before this stone bridge was erected.

Soča Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

1750 was the old stone Napoleon bridge with only a bridge arch. On the bridge, Napoleon's troops marched towards Predel, hence the name.

In the First World War, this bridge was blown up by the Austrian army, later the Italians built a wooden bridge and then followed by an iron bridge. During the Second World War, the partisans defended the Republic of Kobarid here. In commemoration of these events, two commemorative plaques are erected on the bridge.

Napoleon Bridge over the Soča Gorge

Highlight • Bridge

This extremely photogenic bridge crosses the Soča near Kobarid over a narrow rocky channel. The transition at this point has always been important. Only a few places along the raging river offered the opportunity to build a bridge.

In 1758/1759 the old wooden structure was replaced by a stone arch bridge. At that time there were Napoleonic troops in the region, which is how the building got its famous name.

However, none of the French were involved in the construction. The bridge was blown up during the Isonzo battles in World War I and was only rebuilt after the war.

View of Napoleon Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

A classic historic bridge, very well preserved or renovated. Combined with the eroded gorge and the emerald-colored waters of the Soca, the bridge's value increases. All in all, it's a free tourist attraction.
