Puente de Cabezón de Pisuerga, Stone arch bridge in Cabezón de Pisuerga, Spain

The Puente de Cabezón de Pisuerga extends across the Pisuerga River with nine stone arches and triangular cutwaters between its pillars.

The Catholic Monarchs ordered repairs to the bridge in 1495 when one of its arches was collapsing, leading to extensive renovations starting in 1582.

The bridge represents medieval engineering techniques, with construction methods requiring contributions from communities within 20 leagues of its location.

The structure carries the VA-113 road and serves as the main connection point between different sections of Cabezón de Pisuerga municipality.

In 1812, the third arch from the left bank was demolished to prevent French troops from advancing toward Valladolid during the Spanish War of Independence.

Location: Castile and León

Made from material: stone
