Architectural Heritage
Old Bridge
Often called "Roman bridge", its construction is not so remote. The historical sources, the architecture and the stonework signs it displays all point to a medieval construction, dating from the mid-14th century.
Built with of Grés de Silves (sandstone) blocks, it is currently 76 m long and 5.5 m wide. It has five round arches, separated by triple-sided pyramidal starling piers that support the deck, with side railings and a belvedere.
