Puente de Carlos III, Stone bridge in Alcalá de Guadaíra, Spain.

The bridge spans across the Guadaíra River with multiple arches made of solid stone blocks, featuring protective barriers and wide pedestrian walkways.

During the reign of King Carlos III in 1781, the bridge underwent substantial reconstruction with new buttresses and reinforcements to withstand river floods.

Local residents traditionally refer to the structure as Puente de Jesús Nazareno, a name officially adopted in 1944 to honor religious processions crossing it.

The bridge connects the southern expanding area of Alcalá de Guadaíra with the city center, providing direct access to the local library near the Moorish fortress.

Recent restoration work in 2012 uncovered previously buried arches and restored original stonework, revealing historical construction techniques from different periods.
