The bridge brings river, town and Camino into one view. Although this crossing has medieval roots, today's structure opened in 1884: distinguish the continuity of the route from the age of its stones. From the pavements, study the arches and old-town skyline. If you continue down to the riverside, check path conditions and keep a safe distance from the water.

Plan this visit

A crossing also controls goods

The municipal account explains the toll-related huts beside the bridge. We suggest relating these small buildings to the scale of the Ebro crossing: the bridge enabled movement, while its approaches organised checks and taxation. This offers a different reading from studying only arches and reflections.

Decide between crossing and the riverside

Choose whether you want the city profile from the opposite bank or a waterside walk. They are different extensions, adding distance to the old-town circuit. Check permitted paths and do not assume an office is open inside every hut because of its historical role or a sign on a leaflet.
