The Romanesque bridge of Nyons, which crosses the Eygues River, was built between 1399 and 1400. It was inaugurated in 1409 by the Bishop of Vaison. Its two main architects were Guillaume de Pays, a carpenter from Romans, and Jean Felisson, a stonemason from Saint-Robert de Cornillon. While its construction was relatively rapid, its financing took several decades. A "work of the bridge" was already created in 1341. A first prize was awarded in 1361 to Thibaut de Noyx, but it does not appear that he saw its completion: at the end of the 14th century, the Eygues River was crossed using a ferry. Its single arch is one of the largest in France, with a span of 40.50 m and a height of 19 m. This bridge can be compared to the Pont du Roc in Castellane (Alpes-de-Haute-Provence), built by Jean Felisson around 1405, or the Mollans-sur-Ouvèze bridge (Drôme), which may date back to the early 15th century. Listed as a historical monument since 1925, it is the second bridge in France (after the one in Ceret) of such a pure style.
