Culebra Bridge, Madrid, 18th century stone bridge in Casa de Campo, Spain
The Puente de la Culebra crosses the Meaques stream with red brick arches and granite walkways forming a winding path through Casa de Campo park.
Francesco Sabatini designed this bridge in 1782 during King Carlos III's reign, creating a structure that limited access to the royal hunting grounds.
The bridge represents late 18th-century Spanish architectural design, combining red brick construction with decorative granite elements and ten stone pinnacles.
Located in the Zarzón section near Colonia Jardín metro station, the bridge connects two sides of a small lake that houses local wildlife.
The narrow, winding design of the bridge prevented carriages from crossing while allowing pedestrians to count livestock passing through.
