The Iron Bridge ({{langx|lv|Dzelzs tilts}}) or Semigallia Bridge (Zemgales tilts) was a bridge that crossed the Daugava river in Riga, the capital of Latvia. It was built in 1871–72. The bridge was bombarded twice, during World War I and World War II, and was not rebuilt after the last war. The only remains of the bridge are its pillars in the river.{{cite web|url=http://www.lu.lv/terra/2008/jul_aug/resursi/dzc_muzejs.pdf |title=Latvijas Dzelzceļa Vēstures Muzejs |author=Gunta Vilka |language=Latvian |publisher=University of Latvia |accessdate=2009-07-23}} {{Dead link|date=October 2010|bot=H3llBot}}
