Pont Saint-Martin, Medieval bridge in Vienne, France
The Pont Saint-Martin stretches 28 meters across the Gère River, featuring a single stone arch that demonstrates medieval construction techniques.
Built in 1399 under Jacques de Montmaur's governance of Dauphiné, this bridge replaced earlier wooden structures destroyed by flooding in 1375.
The bridge connects to Saint Martin Church and Square, named after Saint Martin of Tours, a fourth-century Christian figure known throughout France.
The structure now serves as a pedestrian crossing point in Vienne, providing direct access between Joseph Martin Street and the Saint Martin district.
A stone cross once stood on the bridge's parapet, its former location still visible through a rectangular hole in the stonework.
