Pont Grand, Stone bridge between Tournon-sur-Rhône and Saint-Jean-de-Muzols, France
The Grand Pont spans the Doux River with a main arch measuring 51 meters in length, connecting the municipalities of Tournon-sur-Rhône and Saint-Jean-de-Muzols.
Construction of the bridge started in 1371 after the destruction of an initial structure in 1251, requiring over 100 years of work until completion in 1583.
This registered historical monument represents a major technical achievement of the 15th century, demonstrating the engineering capabilities of medieval builders.
The bridge is accessible free of charge throughout the year from Route du Grand Pont in Saint-Jean-de-Muzols, with parking facilities nearby for visitors.
At the time of construction, the arch of the Grand Pont was the largest in the world, showcasing the technical excellence of builders in the Rhône-Alpes region.
