Pont Napoléon, Road bridge in Moissac, France
The Pont Napoleon spans 187 meters across the Tarn River with nine arches constructed of brick and cut stone measuring 20.75 meters each.
The bridge construction started in 1812 under Napoleon I's request and completed in 1829, with an official inauguration by Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte in 1852.
Near the bridge, former millers' townhouses from the 18th century mark the Old Port location where barges transported grain and wine for Atlantic trade.
The structure carries both vehicular traffic on departmental road D813 and contains an integrated gas line, connecting the local transportation network.
The House of the Righteous near the bridge provided shelter to 500 Jewish children during wartime through the efforts of Shatta and Simon Bouli.
