It was built by the German army during the Second World War - 1942. as an infrastructure object of the Berlin-Helsinki highway (original source?). As the Red Army approached, the Germans blew up the bridge. At Radže, the area around the bridge supports has been cleared of underbrush, so it is clearly visible. They can best be seen from the territory of the campsite "Radze" or by boat on the Daugava. According to stories, even in Soviet times, pillars were visible above the river, which were blown up so as not to interfere with water traffic. The piers on the left bank are not accessible.
