Pont de Sant Pere, Stone arch bridge in Terrassa, Spain

The Pont de Sant Pere is a 57-metre bridge over the Vallparadís stream in Terrassa, with three arches of unequal width: a wider round central arch and two pointed side arches. It is built of common rubble masonry with stone blocks at the corners, stands 19.30 metres high and 3.50 metres wide, and links Carrer de la Creu Gran with Plaça de Mossèn Homs.

The consellers of the old village of Sant Pere decided in 1579 to build a bridge over the Vallparadís torrent and commissioned the master builder Pere Pomers, replaced in 1609 by Ramon Suris (Ramon Flotes in the Spanish source). Works stalled for years, mainly over financing, and finished in 1626. On 12 June 1918 a motion to turn the bridge into an embankment was rejected by 10 votes to 8.

The bridge links Carrer de la Creu Gran with Plaça de Mossèn Homs, the square that opens onto the church complex of Sant Pere. Until the Vallparadís stream was culverted and turned into the park, small vegetable plots were tended on its banks. In 1999 a new railing was installed, a change criticised for clashing with the bridge's historic character.

The bridge links Carrer de la Creu Gran with Plaça de Mossèn Homs, the square giving access to the Sant Pere church complex, inside Vallparadís Park. Vehicles have been barred since 2006, so it is crossed on foot only; the walkway is 3.50 m wide. The 1999 railing is the one to look at as you cross.

In 1918 the city council debated turning the bridge into an embankment; the motion failed by ten votes to eight. A 1999 renovation drew criticism for a railing judged unsuited to the bridge's historic character, and in 2006 it closed to vehicles for good.
