Requejo Bridge, Industrial heritage bridge in Zamora Province, Spain

The Requejo Bridge spans across the Duero River, connecting the municipalities of Pino del Oro and Villadepera through a metal structure reaching 90 meters in height.

The bridge, inaugurated on September 15, 1914, by Public Works Director Abilio Calderón, replaced a ferry service controlled by the Marquis of Santa Colomba.

The bridge construction involved local workers under Robustiano Fernández's direction, with components manufactured at the Duro Felguera plant in La Felguera.

The structure supports the ZA-321 road with a three-meter traffic clearance, enabling transportation between the Sayago and Aliste regions of Zamora Province.

Upon completion in 1914, the Requejo Bridge featured Spain's highest elevation over a river at 90 meters and longest span at 120 meters.
