Bridge of the Bride, Concrete arch bridge in Guillaumes, France

The reinforced concrete bridge stretches 53 meters across the Var River, rising 80 meters above the water with a width of 3 meters.

Built between 1910 and 1923, this structure served as a tramway connection between Pont de Gueydan and Guillaumes until its closure in 1929.

The bridge received its name following a tragic incident in 1927 when a young bride fell from the structure during her honeymoon journey.

Located on the D2202 road, the bridge now functions as a road crossing point and offers opportunities for bungee jumping activities.

The structure stands as one of France's earliest reinforced concrete bridges, positioned within the red cliffs of the Gorges de Daluis.
