Pont du Robinet, Suspension bridge over Rhône River in Donzère, France

The Pont du Robinet extends 333 meters across the Rhône River with a width of 5.5 meters and metal guardrails along wooden decking.

The bridge, completed in 1847, replaced a ferry service that had operated at this crossing point since 877 with privileges renewed in 1147.

The bridge name derives from Robin Berton, a local tile-maker documented in 1495 cadastral records who owned the land where the structure stands.

Following extensive renovations in 2010, the bridge connects the departments of Drôme and Ardèche while maintaining its historical architectural elements.

The structure survived multiple natural disasters, including a devastating flood in 1856 and strong Mistral winds between 1901 and 1902.
