    The Pont de Recouvrance in Brest is a feat of engineering, inaugurated in 1954. This imposing lift bridge, crossing the Penfeld River, is essential to maritime and land traffic.

      Imposing bridge with 2 powerful pillars that can lift the entire roadway. From the bridge you also have a good view of the city and the industrial port.

      The Recouvrance Bridge is a lift bridge that crosses the Penfeld in Brest, Finistère. Dominating the arsenal and military port, it connects the lower part of Rue de Siam with the Recouvrance district and replaces the swing bridge (National Bridge), which was destroyed by Allied bombing in 1944.
