Puente de San Fernando, Madrid, Stone bridge in Monte de El Pardo, Madrid, Spain
The San Fernando Bridge spans the Manzanares River with two separate sections, featuring four arches on the left segment and three on the right.
The bridge opened in 1749 during Fernando VI's reign, replacing a former wooden walkway that provided access to El Pardo Royal Site.
The structure displays two statues created by Vicente Bort, representing Saint Fernando and Saint Barbara, placed on opposite pedestals along the parapet.
The bridge width ranges from 6.2 to 8.0 meters, constructed entirely of granite blocks and currently serves as part of Madrid's cycling ring.
The bridge underwent modifications in 1856 after a flood, resulting in the addition of a second segment with three arches measuring 9.75 meters each.
