Pont Saint-Pierre de Toulouse, Concrete bridge in Toulouse, France

The Pont Saint-Pierre extends 240 meters across the Garonne River, connecting the historical Place Saint-Pierre with the Hospice de La Grave district.

The first version of the bridge, built between 1849 and 1852 with wooden structures and metal cables, was destroyed during the severe flood of 1875.

The bridge functions as a meeting point for university students who gather near Place Saint-Pierre, surrounded by restaurants and entertainment venues.

Pedestrians and cyclists can cross the Garonne River using this concrete structure, which provides direct access between the city center and western districts.

The current bridge, dating from 1987, features a steel deck design that replaced previous metal iterations from the late 19th century.
