The Iron Bridge of the old Lauria railway, located near the Lauria Alta cemetery, owes its name to its proximity to this site. This metal bridge is a historical reminder of the passage of the Lagonegro-Spezzano Albanese railway, which bypassed the town of Lauria Alta with impressive engineering structures, such as viaducts and tunnels. Today, the bridge is part of the cycle/pedestrian path that follows the old railway line, representing a strong link between the local industrial heritage and the surrounding natural landscape, offering a fascinating perspective on the history and memory of the area.
