The familiarly known as Puente de la Culebra was initially built under the name of "Narrow Bridge" under the reign of the monarch Carlos III in the Royal Site of Casa de Campo. It is one of the five bridges built by the Italian architect Francesco Sabatini over the Meaques stream, and the most spectacular and artistic of them. It was completed in 1782, and was designed with little width to prevent carriages from passing over it.

An 18th-century gem hidden in the Casa de Campo. Its undulating shapes are unique, and the contrast of the brick with the surroundings is spectacular. A must-see if you pass by the Meaques stream. Very photogenic!
