Description
This bridge, known as the Roman bridge, is a construction dating from the end of the Middle Ages, from the 15th or the beginning of the 16th century, and is distinguished by a pronounced curvature. It consists of a single arch of a range of thirteen meters. In addition, it has a low parapet. Its unique characteristic lies in the fact that it joins the watercourse by an access ramp which forms an angle with the bridge and is also protected by a parapet, but only on one side.
