Pont du Diable

The bridge spans 61.5 meters in length and rises 70 meters above the Château-Renaud stream, featuring a main arch extending 20 meters across the gorge.

Construction of the bridge began in the late 1870s under the direction of M. Delmas from Besançon to connect the previously isolated village of Sainte-Anne.

The bridge represents one of 170 Devil's Bridges in France, where local folklore tells of a builder making supernatural agreements for its completion.

Visitors can access the bridge via the D103 road from Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne, with parking available before reaching the structure.

The bridge serves as a connection point between Crouzet-Migette and Sainte-Anne municipalities over a stream that falls thirty meters into Creux-Billard.
