The “Pont de Pontaubault” is a beautiful work of art, the construction of which dates back to the 15th century. It is the first bridge to cross the Sélune, between Saint-Quentin-sur-le-Homme (right bank) and Pontaubault (left bank). It is located on the old road from Avranches to Rennes, via Saint-James. Since the arrival of the A84 motorway it has mainly been used locally. The bridge has eleven arches and is built with stone masonry. There is a picnic area at the bridge, near the railway viaduct of the Caen-Rennes line, not far from the salt meadows where sheep graze. During big tides many spectators and kayakers come to enjoy the spectacle provided by the tide. The bridge has a rich history. It was bombed several times during World War II but withstood these attacks, allowing 100,000 men and 1,500 vehicles to cross. A memorial plaque recalls that "the fate of the war lay on this bridge".

The “Pont Gilbert - Passerelle de la Sée” is a pedestrian and bicycle bridge that connects Avranches and Marcey-les-Grèves.

The bridge is also one of the highlights in the Vernix region.
