Pont Vell de Manresa

The Pont Vell de Manresa extends 113 meters across the Cardener River with eight arches and reaches a maximum height of 25 meters.

Built in the 14th century, the bridge underwent substantial reconstruction between 1960 and 1962 following damage sustained during the 1939 Spanish Civil War.

The structure received recognition as a Cultural Asset of National Interest in 1955, marking its importance in Spanish architectural heritage.

Located at coordinates 41.720833, 1.83, the bridge maintains its original function while connecting the southwestern entrance of Manresa city.

The bridge features two discharge arches on each side of its main span to reduce water resistance during floods, following Roman engineering principles.
