The viaduct of Austerlitz is a railroad bridge which crosses the Seine. It is registered ancient memorial. The decoration of the viaduct of Austerlitz was confided to Jean Camille Formigé, also loaded with the architecture of the superstructures of the Paris metro. He made up it of diverse marine symbols (fishes, reams, anchors, tridents). The weapons of Paris are present at the bottom of bows. The passage of the subway between both stations that must be made around and the navigation on the Seine forbidding the presence of pillars in the middle of the river, the project held to realize the viaduct of Austerlitz was established by two parabolic bows, resting on both sides of the river on two stony pillars, allowing the apron to cross the river without intermediate support.
