Puente Zuazo, Bridge in Puerto Real and San Fernando, Spain

The Puente Zuazo extends 350 meters in length and 10 meters in width, connecting the municipalities of Puerto Real and San Fernando across Sancti Petri channel.

Built in 1411, the bridge underwent reinforcement during Felipe II's reign in the 16th century, using taxes from goods crossing towards America through Cadiz port.

The structure received recognition as Asset of Cultural Interest in 1998 and forms part of the historical sites linked to the Spanish Constitution of 1812.

The bridge continues to function as a primary transportation route between Puerto Real and San Fernando, maintaining its role in regional connectivity.

The structure incorporates elements from Roman aqueducts, medieval architecture, and military fortifications, including two defensive forts built in 1605.
