Puente de Abbas Ibn Firnas

The Puente de Abbas Ibn Firnas is a cable-stayed bridge that crosses the Guadalquivir River and connects areas of Córdoba Province with a modern steel structure. It features two main cable systems and is designed for vehicle traffic between different parts of the region.

The bridge was constructed in the 2000s as a modern infrastructure project for the region and represents a recent addition to crossings over the river. It was built to improve connectivity across the Guadalquivir.

The bridge is named after a 9th-century scholar who lived and worked in the Al-Andalus region, leaving an intellectual mark on the area. This naming choice reflects how the place honors local scientific tradition.

The bridge is open to regular traffic and provides safe passage for vehicles crossing the river. Visitors can walk along designated areas or view the structure from the riverbanks.

A pedestrian pathway beneath the structure leads to an information plaque about the scholar it commemorates. This hidden feature allows visitors to learn about the figure behind the bridge's name.
