Pont des Trois-Sautets, Road bridge in Aix-en-Provence, France.

The Pont des Trois-Sautets spans the Arc River with a single stone arch, connecting the communities of Aix-en-Provence and Meyreuil.

Built in 1655, this bridge earned its name from the three small jumps people needed to cross the Arc River before its construction.

Paul Cézanne frequently visited this location and created several watercolor paintings depicting the bridge and its surrounding landscape.

The bridge remains a functional part of the local road network, providing an essential crossing point for vehicles between Aix-en-Provence and Meyreuil.

A public campaign in the early 20th century successfully prevented the municipality of Meyreuil from demolishing this historical structure.
