Historical Context Origin of the name: The town of Ponte de Lima, the oldest in Portugal, derives its name from the bridge that crosses it. Way of St. James: The bridge is an important crossing point on the Portuguese Way of St. James. Legend: The legend of the Lima River, which runs under the bridge, tells that the Romans believed it to be the river of forgetfulness, which would have given rise to the myth that people who crossed it would forget their past lives.

The bridge that gives the Lima Bridge its name is actually a combination of two structures: a Roman section, built in the 1st century, and a medieval section, expanded in the 14th century. It crosses the Lima River and is one of the town's most emblematic monuments. Characteristics of the bridge Roman section: The remaining Roman section consists of five arches, and its construction is linked to the military road that connected the cities of Braga and Astorga. Medieval section: The medieval portion of the bridge is larger and was built to connect to the Roman section, extending the structure over the river. Material: The bridge is built of granite, using the Roman technique of "quadratum" and "vittatum" masonry.
