The bridge of Bir-Hakeim, with beautiful cast iron sculptures of Nautes and Blacksmiths riveters in Paris.
Long called the Passy viaduct, the structure was renamed after the 1942 victory of the Free French Forces against the Germans in Libya. A first metal footbridge of 1878 was replaced in 1903 by the current bridge which is topped by a viaduct where the trains of the metro line 6 pass. The alignment of the viaduct's pylons surmounts the bridge's piers, which feature beautiful cast-iron sculptures of "Nauts" and "Riveting Blacksmiths". In the center, bas-reliefs, allegories of Science, Work, Electricity and Commerce.

La structure métallique soutenant le métro aérien est originale et très belle.
