Pont Marengo, Canal bridge in Carcassonne, France

The Pont Marengo spans across the Canal du Midi, establishing a connection between the city center of Carcassonne and its railway station.

Built in 1800 during the French Republican calendar's year 8, the bridge received its name from Napoleon's victory at the Battle of Marengo.

Next to the bridge, a memorial garden honors the resistance fighters who lost their lives during Nazi occupation in World War II.

The bridge location at coordinates 43.2175°N and 2.351944°E provides access to the railway station and serves as a crossing point for local traffic.

The adjacent lock system allows visitors to observe canal boats navigating through the waterway while connecting Basin de Carcassonne to Trèbes.

GPS coordinates: 43.21750,2.35194
