History
On 6 November 1910, the Elisabeth Bridge, built by the Arad company of Fodor Zsigmond and Reisinger Sándor and their Budapest business partner, Schiffer Miksa, was inaugurated. The metal bridge was blown up during the Second World War on 21 September 1944. Today it bears the name of Emperor Trajan. The original bridge did not look like this.
