Pont du Diable, Medieval stone bridge in San Miguel de Pedroso, Spain

The two-arch concrete bridge spans across the Tiron River, connecting the road from Pradoluengo to Belorado with San Miguel village.

The original structure was built in 1909, while the current concrete bridge dates from 1929, replacing an older wooden bridge called Magazos.

Local folklore tells of mythological creatures with duck feet and female bodies, known as laminak in Basque mythology, inhabiting the area near the bridge.

The bridge carries the BU-811 road and includes a hydrographic station measuring water flow, with an average contribution of 90.6 cubic hectometers per year.

Workers named it Devil's Bridge after numerous construction attempts were repeatedly destroyed by river floods, leading to supernatural explanations.
