Gustave Eiffel bridge in Pinhão, Steel road bridge in Pinhão, Portugal.
The steel construction spans 241 meters across the Douro River, featuring metal arches that support vehicular traffic between both riverbanks.
Gustave Eiffel designed this bridge in the early twentieth century, completing its construction in 1903 as part of Portugal's infrastructure development.
