Overlooked by the medieval village of La Roque sur Cèze, this equally medieval bridge is clearly worth a visit. Especially since to get there you have to take the road to Laroque, which is a beautiful little road as we like them.

The bridge takes us over the Cèze. The village of La Roque is really very pretty.

It was built to ensure the passage of the road between Uzès and Pont-Saint-Esprit, the former bishopric's main access point to the Rhone Valley. It has an exceptional length of 155 m, longer than the Bagnols bridge or the Saint-Nicolas bridge, on the Gardon.
* Does it owe its name to:

To Charles Martel (690-741)...whose passage through the area is anything but proven?

Father Charles Martel (1816-1899), one of the key figures in the history of La Roque-sur-Cèze?
The secret remains!
