The Roman Bridge in Iža is a small, two-arched brick bridge near the Danube shore, traditionally believed to date from the Ottoman period in the region, although it features Roman construction elements. The Ottomans undoubtedly used the infrastructure that remained from Roman times.
Located near the Roman watchtower along the Danube, this modest structure stands somewhat apart from the village, close to the riverbank. Local tradition holds that it was built during the Turkish era, which is why it is known as the “Turecký most” (Turkish Bridge).

In his study Bridges in Slovakia, Peter Paulík describes it as a small brick arch bridge likely originating from the time of Ottoman occupation. The bridge features two arches, each with a clear span of approximately 2 metres. Surrounded by large trees on both sides, it creates an unexpectedly picturesque scene—an almost quiet historical footnote in brick and mortar. Despite its remote location, it continues to be used by local residents on the route toward the Danube, showing how small infrastructure can outlive empires.
