    The Alcántara Bridge is one of Toledo's most important historical gateways and a key engineering feat dating back to Roman times.

    Originally built by the Romans as part of the roads crossing the Tagus River towards the city of Toletum, it was rebuilt in several stages due to damage and flooding of the Tagus. Notable phases include:
    10th century: renovation under Islamic rule (the horseshoe arch was added).
    13th century: reconstruction under Alfonso X, from which the western tower originates.
    1721: replacement of the eastern tower with a Baroque triumphal arch.
