Pont-passerelle du Mont Saint-Michel, Pedestrian bridge in Le Mont-Saint-Michel, France

The 760-meter bridge connects the mainland to Le Mont-Saint-Michel with a central roadway of 6.5 meters and a 4.5-meter wooden walkway.

The bridge, completed in 2014, replaced a 19th-century causeway that prevented natural water circulation and contributed to sand accumulation around the island.

The structure, designed by architect Dietmar Feichtinger, maintains the visual connection between the bay and Mont-Saint-Michel through its minimal vertical elements.

The bridge stands 1.5 meters above the highest tides and allows passage for shuttle buses, horse-drawn carriages, and supply vehicles.

The construction rests on 134 steel tubular posts anchored in pairs every 12 meters on concrete piles reaching depths between 17 and 35 meters.

Location: Le Mont-Saint-Michel
