It spans the Miño River, linking the historic center of Ourense with the A Ponte neighborhood. It was built in the 1st century AD as a branch of the Via Nova (Via XVIII), connecting Bracara Augusta (Braga) with Asturica Augusta (Astorga). Only traces of the original Roman phase remain, such as rusticated stonework at the ends near the banks. It suffered damage during the Middle Ages; in 1228, under Bishop Lorenzo and with the support of Ferdinand III, it was rebuilt with pointed arches and renovated approaches. Until the 17th century, the bridge repeatedly collapsed. The final work was directed by Melchor de Velasco Agüero around 1660, establishing its current appearance.

The Roman bridge in Ourense, known as Ponte Vella or Puente Mayor, over the Miño River, was built in the 1st century AD as part of a branch of the Via Nova (Eighteenth Century). According to tradition, it dates back to the time of Trajan, although its construction characteristics place it close to the time of Augustus. Of that first bridge, only a few cushioned ashlars from the bases remain, as silent witnesses of the past.
