Remains of the Old Remoulins Suspension Bridge

From the old bridge there is a wonderful view of the river and the surrounding landscape as well as the new bridge which has now taken over the traffic.

The remains of the old suspension bridge (Seguin bridge - piles and octrois), work of the brothers Marc and Camille Seguin, who were the inventors, in France, of the principle of the suspension bridges, was completed in May 1830 and dismantled in 1937. This site offers a panorama of the Gardon on each bank. The decking of the old bridge has been reconstructed and vision boxes allow to imagine what this bridge was. There also remain the grants, old tolls (visits possible on request from the Heritage Association and during Heritage Days). remoulins.fr/decoulez-remoulins/patitage/pat inheritance

It's a pity that there are only these remains of this former suspension bridge, would be a nice bicycle bridge.
