Pont de la Tournelle, Arch bridge in the 4th arrondissement, France.
The Pont de la Tournelle spans 122 meters across the Seine River, featuring three asymmetrical arches and connecting the Notre-Dame and Saint-Victor districts of Paris.
Built in 1928 to replace an earlier stone structure from 1656, the bridge takes its name from a medieval tower that was part of Philippe Auguste's wall.
A 14-meter-high column on the bridge supports a statue of Saint Genevieve, the patron saint of Paris, created by sculptor Paul Landowski.
The reinforced concrete bridge carries vehicle and pedestrian traffic between the Left Bank and Ile Saint-Louis, with a width of 23 meters.
The Port de la Tournelle beneath the bridge houses permanent residential barges that serve as year-round homes along the Seine's left bank.
