The Répudre canal bridge is a canal bridge built between 1676 and 1680 by Pierre-Paul Riquet on the Canal du Midi to allow him to span the Répudre stream, in Paraza in the Aude.

The real name is the Répudre Canal Bridge (canal bridges are named after the streams or rivers they span). This is the first canal bridge to be built on the Canal du Midi, a true technological feat.

In fact it is not an aqueduct but a canal bridge. An aqueduct is used to transport water for irrigation or consumption; it is a work of art for a river communication route.
