Pont des Morts, Medieval stone bridge in Metz, France.

Pont des Morts is a stone bridge in Metz that arches across the Moselle River with multiple stone spans connecting rue des Roches to boulevard Robert Serot. The structure allows both pedestrians and vehicles to cross between different neighborhoods of the city.

A wooden bridge stood here before 1267; in 1282 the master alderman decided to build in stone, and the stone bridge was completed in 1343 with fifteen arches. Two more arches were added on the left bank between 1422 and 1513 because of erosion. The bridge was restored in the 18th century, widened by four metres between 1813 and 1847, and two arches on the left bank were destroyed by the German army in November 1944 and rebuilt in 1955-1957.

The name comes from a charter of 8 March 1222: anyone who died owed their best garment to the Saint-Nicolas hospital, which had built the bridge and maintained it. Metz began collecting this tax on the clothing of the dead in 1583. Some historians dispute the link, arguing the earlier wooden bridge already bore the name.

To reach the bridge, follow signs toward the Moselle riverbanks or use nearby street markers as orientation. The crossing is accessible to pedestrians at any time and also open to vehicle traffic.

Under the first arch of the Moyen Pont, an opening once let down the grilles that closed the city's river access. At the bridge's end, the base of a 15th-century crenellated tower still stands; in the 18th century it housed a wire factory and a sawmill, later public baths, before being razed in 1934.
