    Located on the São Roque canal, the Carcavelos Bridge was built in 1953 to replace the original bridge, which collapsed 11 years earlier. It was a mandatory crossing point for workers on the Sal River.

    It is one of the oldest and most emblematic bridges in Aveiro. It was built over the São Roque canal. Yellow, adorned with balusters and the city's coat of arms (the eagle represents the symbol of Aveiro), the Carcavelos Bridge can be visited during a stroll through the typical Beira-Mar neighborhood or on one of the many boat tours along the estuary.
