Pont de l'Olivar, Medieval bridge in Ulldecona and Vinaròs, Spain
Pont de l'Olivar is a stone bridge linking Ulldecona and Vinaròs, built from local materials using traditional methods. The construction displays stonework techniques characteristic of the region and remains structurally intact across its span.
The bridge takes its name from the Mas de l'Olivar, a farmhouse about 200 metres away on the Catalan bank. Its two arches, a semicircular main span over the Sénia and a slightly pointed side arch over the ravine, appear to belong to a single building phase. The structure is listed in the Inventory of the Architectural Heritage of Catalonia.
