The Moerputten Bridge is a former railway bridge near the Dutch city 's-Hertogenbosch and spans the peat lake 'Lange Putten'. The bridge was in use as railway bridge from 1887 until 1972. Currently the bridge is a footpath.[1] In 1995 the bridge became an monument. Two years later Staatsbosbeheer bought the bridge and the area around it. They restore the bridge in 2004 to the original status.
