This Animation of How Bridges Were Constructed in 14th Century Prague is Amazing

In this informative animation we learn how the iconic Charles Bridge was constructed in 1357. The historic bridge crosses the Vltava (Moldau) river in Prague, Czech Republic and is 516 metres (1,693 ft) long and nearly 10 metres (33 ft) wide. It was built as a bow bridge with 16 arches shielded by ice guards.

Yes my medieval ancestors are indeed amazing! This is kind of a non-sequitur from what you usually post @tulc I was pretty sure there was going to some kind of reference to Ivana Trump in there somewhere...

I don’t know why I didn’t think they had that much technology the romans had it and by the 15th century they would have rediscovered most of that .
