Colloto Roman Bridge
Colloto Roman Bridge, Stone bridge in Colloto, Spain.
Colloto Roman Bridge is a stone structure spanning the Nora River with two arches of varying dimensions. The construction shows careful stonework and maintains its function as a passage route between Siero and Oviedo.
The structure dates to the Roman period and shows the continuity of ancient trade routes in the region. Excavations in the 1990s unearthed coins from late centuries, highlighting the age of the structure and its economic importance.
The bridge has held the status of Bien de Interés Cultural since 2003 and forms part of the Routes of Santiago de Compostela World Heritage Site. It continues to function as a crossing point that locals and visitors still use today.
The bridge lies near the N-634 road at the boundary between Siero and Oviedo municipalities and is easily accessible. You can walk across it or view it from the nearby road, making it a convenient stop on your route.
Archaeological studies reveal that the bridge differs in width and construction methods from typical Roman engineering standards. These characteristics suggest the structure was adapted to local needs and conditions of the time.
