Passerelle de la Mare, Pedestrian bridge in Belleville, Paris, France.

The metal arch bridge crosses over the former Petite Ceinture railway line, connecting two sections of Rue de la Mare in the 20th district.

The first bridge structure was built in 1854 to maintain pedestrian access after the Petite Ceinture railway line divided the Rue de la Mare.

A commemorative plaque on the bridge honors Resistance members who fell during the Liberation of Paris on August 23, 1944.

Following structural deterioration, the bridge underwent complete reconstruction in 2020-2021 with a budget of 400,000 euros to ensure pedestrian safety.

The photographer Willy Ronis captured the bridge in 1948, creating an image that documents the industrial heritage of this Paris neighborhood.
