The '''Lavant Viaduct''' ({{langx|de|Talübergang Lavant}})  is a [[motorway]] bridge crossing the [[Lavant River]] on the [[Autobahns of Austria|A2]] motorway in [[Carinthia (state)|Carinthia]], [[Austria]]. With a length of 1,097 m and height of 165 m, it is also the second-highest bridge in Austria.

The first (left) bridge was opened on 26 July 1986. Due to cost-cutting reasons, the second (right) bridge was not built, and the section from [[Bad Sankt Leonhard im Lavanttal]] to [[Wolfsberg, Carinthia|Wolfsberg]] was open only on the left side. Construction of the right side of the bridge started in 2004 and was finished in 2007.
