Nice bridge of masonry stone that was built in the 11th century for the passage of pilgrims.
At the entrance, on the banks of Santo Domingo de la Calzada, there is a small hermitage and, behind it, a picnic area with two tables.

Since the middle of the 11th century, when Santo Domingo de la Calzada built a primitive bridge, until today, it has undergone many transformations. The left half of the current one is from the middle of the 18th century, built in masonry stone with breakwaters, previous arches that decrease in height at their ends are respected. The other half is from the mid-20th century, built in concrete with rectangular spurs. The length is 148 m and 16 arches. It is located in the town of Santo Domingo de la Calzada, La Rioja, Spain.

Before the bridge was built, pilgrims on the Way of St. James were exposed to considerable dangers when they had to cross rivers. These, like other bridges, were a huge improvement on the pilgrimage routes.
