Pont Eiffel de Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, Railway bridge in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, France
The Pont Eiffel is a railway bridge crossing the Oise River with a total length of 160 meters, combining stone foundations with steel structural elements. Its central span of about 96 meters allows river traffic to pass underneath.
The original structure was built in 1892 and suffered severe damage during World War II. It was completely reconstructed after 1947 by the Bacci company.
The bridge carries Gustave Eiffel's name, reflecting the industrial heritage of the Paris region that grew around such engineering projects. It stands as a reminder of the era when metal construction transformed how people crossed rivers.
The bridge carries Line J trains running between Paris and Mantes. Visitors can best view it from the riverbank or paths along the Oise.
The adjacent railway station was renamed from Conflans-Pont-Eiffel to Conflans-Fin-d'Oise following the reconstruction. This name change marks the region's fresh start after the war.
