Pont del Diable, Roman bridge in Martorell, Spain
The Devil's Bridge spans 130 meters across the Llobregat River, featuring a 21-meter-high central arch and ancient stone abutments with Roman inscriptions.
Built around 10 BCE as part of Via Augusta, the bridge underwent Gothic reconstruction in 1295 and remained the sole crossing point in the lower Llobregat valley until the 14th century.
Three Roman legions carved their names into the bridge's stone blocks: the X Gemina, IV Macedonica, and VI Victrix, marking their contribution to its construction.
The bridge connects the municipalities of Martorell and Castellbisbal, with the Vicenç Ros Municipal Museum managing its preservation and maintenance.
The bridge displays a triumphal arch on its left bank dating from the 2nd century, combining Roman engineering with Gothic architectural modifications.
