The Hamidiye Bridge (Шаблон:Lang-el, Шаблон:Lang-tr[1]) is a four-arch Ottoman bridge in Western Thrace, Greece, built in the early twentieth century.
Description
It was built in 1904, during the reign of Sultan Abdul Hamit II, and is located at the fourth kilometer between Xanthi and Stavroupoli. The bridge is 63 m. long and 3 m. wide and crosses over the river Kosynthos. One end of the bridge is demolished; according to one account, the bridge was blown up in 1941 by the Greek army so that invading German troops could not cross. According to the other, the bridge was blown up in 1944 by the leader of nationalist partisans, Tsaous Anton (Antonis Fosteridis), to prevent the passage of the Bulgarian army. In the western part of the bridge there was an Ottoman inscription which has been vandalized.[2][3][4]
