Pont du Coq

The Pont du Coq spans the Lévensa River for about 64 meters with a walking surface roughly 3 meters wide. The structure is built from fitted rubble stone and features a paved walkway bordered by low parapets on both sides.

The bridge dates back to the 15th century as a medieval crossing of the valley. Major reconstruction took place in the 18th century, reflecting periods of damage and repair that shaped the structure we see today.

The bridge displays traditional stonework with carefully fitted rubble stones and a paved walkway between the parapets, showing construction methods typical of medieval Alpine valleys. Local residents and visitors pass through daily on foot, making it part of the living rhythm of the village.

The bridge now serves pedestrians only, providing safe passage across the river while allowing views of the medieval village architecture. The paved surface offers good footing even on this steep hillside location.

Despite suffering multiple flood damages, the bridge has remained surprisingly unchanged in its basic form through careful maintenance work over two centuries. This continuity makes it one of the few unaltered medieval crossings in the region.
