Pont de Frynaudour, Metal railway bridge between Plourivo and Quemper-Guézennec, France

The Pont de Frynaudour spans across the Leff River with eighteen trusses, measuring 152 meters in length and 4 meters in width.

Engineers constructed the bridge in 1893 using granite stones from the demolished Frynaudour fortress, under the supervision of Louis Harel de la Noë.

The bridge name comes from Breton 'Fri-an-daou-dour', meaning 'The Nose of Two Waters', marking the meeting point of Trieux and Leff rivers.

The structure carries a single railway track on the Guingamp-Paimpol line, with a maintenance platform suspended beneath for technical inspections.

The bridge withstood an explosives incident in April 1944 and continues to serve as an essential transport link in the Côtes-d'Armor region.
