It's a bridge of Roman origin, remodeled in later times, and although it no longer spans the Jarama River, it bears witness to the river's former passage through the area. Today, it forms part of the recreational area of the same name, the Roman Bridge. It is located on the "Jarama Route," along the old road to France.

It has five arches; the first (closest to the town center) is the largest and oldest.
It was built with limestone blocks, dolomite, and river stones from the Jarama River.
It includes cutwaters shaped like the prow of a ship, which reinforce the structure against river flooding.
The bridge no longer crosses the Jarama River, which has shifted its course eastward, but it remains a testament to historical engineering.
