A device (18) for holding a contact wire (16) intended to be in contact with at least one railway vehicle, said device (18) comprising:- a support (24);- a base (26) rotatably mounted on the support (24) around a first rotation axis (A'A) intended to be approximately vertical;- a steady arm (28) having a first end (40) rotatably mounted on the base (26) around a second rotation axis (B'B), and a second end (42) opposite said first end (40), the second rotation axis (B'B) being approximately perpendicular to the first rotation axis (A'A), the steady arm (28) being moveable between a default position with respect to said base (26), occupied when the railway vehicle is in a remote position with respect to the steady arm (28), and a plurality of deviated positions, in which the steady arm (28) deviates from the default position as the railway vehicle is in closer positions with respect to the steady arm (28);- a clamp (30) connected to the second end (42) of the steady arm (28), the clamp (30) being intended to be connected to the contact wire (16); and- an elastic element (32) set between the base (26) and the steady arm (28), said elastic element (32) being configured to be deformed when the steady arm (28) is in the default position and in some of the deviated positions;The device (18) further comprises a dampening element (34) configured to dampen movements of the steady arm (28).
