CZ: Na silnici I/28 vedoucí z Loun do Mostu a Teplic, na severním okraji Loun, se nachází 272 metru dlouhý inundacní (záplavový) most. Pole a louky mezi Louny a Dobromericemi byla totiž casto vystavena záplavám, a proto byla snaha udržet komunikaci sjízdnou. Most z pocátku 19. století má ctyricet oblouku s valenými klenbami, nad každým obloukem je na každé strane mostu kamenný žlab pro odvod vody z mostu.
ENG: The I / 28 road from Louny to Most and Teplice, on the northern outskirts of Louny, is a 272-meter long inundation bridge. The fields and meadows between Louny and Dobromerice were often exposed to flooding, and therefore the effort to keep the road passable was an effort. The bridge from the early 19th century has forty arches with barrel vaults, above each arch there is a stone trough on each side of the bridge to drain water from the bridge.
