Pont Morland, Stone bridge in 10th arrondissement, France.

The Pont Morland crosses over the Bassin de l'Arsenal, connecting Boulevard Morland with Quai de la Rapee through a single-arch stone structure.

Built in 1879, the Pont Morland was constructed at the entrance of Port de l'Arsenal during the transformation of Paris waterways under Napoleon III.

The bridge received its name from Colonel Morland of Napoleon's Imperial Guard, who lost his life during the Battle of Austerlitz.

The 50-meter-long bridge serves both vehicular and pedestrian traffic, linking the 10th and 12th arrondissements near the Bastille district.

The bridge contains original floodgates that regulate water flow between the Canal Saint-Martin system and the Port de l'Arsenal marina.
