Ponte de Lagoncinha, Medieval stone bridge in Lousado, Portugal
The Ponte de Lagoncinha stretches 120 meters across the Ave River with six arches and granite stone guards along its four-meter-wide passage.
Dating from the 12th century, this bridge replaced an ancient Roman structure that connected the cities of Bracara Augusta and Cale.
The bridge's name originates from D. Gontinha, a local noblewoman who lived near the river during the medieval period.
The structure underwent major restoration work in 1952 and 1953, carried out by the National Directorate of Buildings and Monuments.
The bridge features a combination of round and broken arches, reflecting different architectural styles from its construction period.
