Pont Rouelle, Railway bridge in 15th arrondissement, France

The Pont Rouelle spans across the Seine River, connecting the 15th and 16th arrondissements while passing through the Île aux Cygnes island.

The steel bridge opened in 1900 for the World Fair in Paris, designed by architect A Bonnet alongside other major structures like Pont Alexandre III.

The structure bears the name of French chemist Guillaume-François Rouelle, reflecting the practice of honoring scientists in Parisian infrastructure.

The bridge serves the RER C train line, with access points at Avenue du President Kennedy station and the nearby Bir-Hakeim metro station.

The bridge structure combines four different sections, including a masonry arch, metal arch, stone arch, and a segment supported by two river piles.
