Pont du Moulin, Stone bridge in Thorame-Haute, France.

The Pont du Moulin spans 41 meters across the Verdon River with two uneven arches measuring 20 and 5 meters in diameter at a height of 9 meters.

Master mason Eustache Ventre from Colmars completed the construction of this bridge in 1688, replacing an older wooden structure that dated back to 1626.

The bridge earned recognition as a historical monument in 1977, representing the architectural methods and transportation needs of the Haute-Provence region in the 17th century.

The structure requires extensive repairs due to deterioration, with sections of the facing having collapsed and stones potentially carried away by the Verdon River.

Local residents incorrectly refer to it as the Roman Bridge, while old postcards name it the bridge of Serpeigier after the mountain it leads toward.
