Bridge in Bonneville.

The structure is an asymmetrical cable-stayed bridge made of pre-stressed concrete, approximately 75 metres long. The pylon inclined at 15° to the vertical has the shape of an inverted V; the deck crosses this pylon without resting on it.

The bridge is an element of the birth of the city, built from 1225. It was initially made of wood resting on the islands of the Arve to connect the two banks. In 1661, the Regent Marie-Jeanne-Baptiste of Savoy-Nemours had a stone bridge with five arches built. Between 1862 and 1866, it was replaced by the current bridge, built by the engineers Deglin and Vivenot. It was named "Pont de l'Europe" when Valérie Giscard d'Estaing passed through Bonneville in 1989, during the campaign for the European elections. Downstream, it was doubled in 2010 by a second asymmetrical cable-stayed bridge whose elegant silhouette is already part of Bonneville's architectural heritage.
