Puente de los Peligros, Stone bridge across Segura River in Murcia, Spain
The Puente de los Peligros features two stone arches spanning the Segura River, with straight pedestrian walkways and black metal railings on both sides.
Built between 1718 and 1742, this bridge replaced a 16th-century structure that was destroyed by a devastating flood in September 1701.
A wooden statue of Our Lady of Hazards stands in a niche on the southern side, giving the bridge its name and inspiring locals to cross themselves.
The bridge connects the historic center with Carmen district, offering passage to vehicles and pedestrians while providing views of the Cathedral and Glorieta.
Metal structures were added in 1850 and 1867 to create wider sidewalks, making it the first permanent bridge in Murcia to withstand periodic flooding.
