    Tips

    Built in its current version probably at the end of the Middle Ages, with significant difficulties, which is then frequent. It may not have really been completed until the beginning of the 16th century, the "golden age" of the town of Tournon, because the funds for the works were apparently lacking on several occasions. We note about it the existence of a specialized corporation: the pontonniers du Doux.



    It is an exceptional work, of national interest due to the span of its formidable 49.2 m semicircular arch, a technical record for the time (in France it is comparable to the arches of "La Vieille Brioude" and Nyons ). Its aesthetics are also remarkable (observe it from the railway line, both upstream and downstream).
