Passerelle des Douanes, Footbridge across Canal Saint-Martin in 10th arrondissement, France.
The Passerelle des Douanes spans the Canal Saint-Martin with three cast iron arches connecting Quai de Valmy to Quai de Jemmapes.
Built in 1860, this pedestrian bridge served as a model for other footbridges constructed along the Canal Saint-Martin during the nineteenth century.
The footbridge maintains its original nineteenth-century engineering features and stands near the former Customs warehouse built in the 1830s.
Located between République and Goncourt metro stations, the bridge provides a direct path for pedestrians crossing the canal near Square Frédérick-Lemaître.
The structure extends from Rue Léon-Jouhaux and contains molded cast iron elements that demonstrate the industrial capabilities of the Second Empire period.
