Pont Saint-Thomas, Historic cast iron bridge in Strasbourg, France.
The Saint Thomas Bridge spans 31.10 meters across the Ill River with four parallel hollow arches connected to the deck by cast iron tubular rings.
Constructed in 1841 by De Dietrich Company using the Polonceau process, this bridge stands as one of the two remaining examples of this engineering method in France.
The bridge connects Grande-Ile district to Finkwiller neighborhood, marking a crossing point documented since 1197 near Saint Thomas Church.
The structure underwent complete renovation in 2008, including improvements to both the deck and metallic components to maintain its functionality.
The bridge features an innovative single-arch design that eliminated the need for supporting pillars, allowing for a narrower river channel at this location.
