Pont de Châteauneuf-sur-Loire, Suspension bridge in Châteauneuf-sur-Loire, France.

The Pont de Châteauneuf-sur-Loire extends 276.5 meters across the Loire River, connecting the communities of Châteauneuf-sur-Loire and Sigloy through five spans.

The bridge's initial construction began in 1838 following a royal ordinance, and its first version was completed in 1841 to improve regional connectivity.

The bridge stands within the Loire Valley UNESCO World Heritage site, representing the engineering capabilities and architectural preferences of 19th-century France.

The structure includes an 8.5-meter-wide deck with dedicated pedestrian walkways and supports vehicle traffic on departmental road D11.

The bridge's support system uses steel cables with a cross-section of 4,372 square millimeters to maintain its suspension structure.
