The Roman bridge of Cangas de Onís, or puentón, is located over the Sella river and is one of the symbols of Asturias. Although it is known as the Roman bridge, it is a medieval construction from the time of the reign of Alfonso XI of Castile with its famous peralted arch and two other minor arches that are unequal. In 1939, a large Victory Cross, symbol of Asturias, was placed in the center of its great central arch.

The Roman bridge of Cangas de Onís or bungee jumping. It is a construction located on the Sella River as it passes through Cangas de Onís, and that separates the councils of Cangas de Onís and Parres, belonging, therefore, half to each council. His figure is associated with the town of Cangas de Onís.

The Bungee is one of the symbols of Asturias. It is part of the shield of Cangas de Onís, next to the cross on the inverted crescent that recalls the victory over the Muslims in the battle of Covadonga and the legend Minima urbium, maxima sedium (minimum city, maximum seat).

In 1931 it was declared a Historic-Artistic Monument. In its surroundings, many riparians from the Sella River area usually go fishing for salmon.
