It was a medieval bridge that was partially destroyed in 1811 during the Peninsular War. It remained broken for almost two centuries, hence its name. In 2003, it was restored, combining the historical remains with a modern walkway, without being completely rebuilt, which makes it unique: a blend of medieval ruin and contemporary architecture. Today, it's a must-see for cyclists in the area, not only for the convenience of crossing the Tordera River, but also because it's impressive to see a broken bridge still serving its purpose. And in the background, Montseny.
