The Pont des Arts, a romantic symbol of lovers linking the Cour Carrée of the Louvre and the dome of the Académie Française.

The Pont des Arts, a romantic symbol of love, linking the Cour Carrée of the Louvre and the dome of the Académie Française, was built under the First Empire. It was the first metal bridge in Paris. But its nine arches caused a lot of trouble for the boatmen. Accidents were so numerous that it was closed to the public in 1970, and not rebuilt until the 1980s. Numerous "love padlocks" were hung on it. But the town council decided to remove them in 2015. They were so numerous that they threatened to topple the railings!

Le plus bel endroit pour pique niquer que j´ai testé jusquà present. Il y reignait une ambiance parfaite, des centaines de personnes qui profitent du pont d´une belle maniere en éte.

Magnifique vu sur le Louvre cela est un incontournable d une jolie balade et photo parisienne. Je regrette qu on mette des plaques car les gens ne respectent pas un monument avec leurs cadenas c est dommage. Même pb pont qui méne à l île de la cité etc...

Un pont qui est loin de la beauté de certains autres mais qui a le privilège d'être magnifiquement situé ! Vue magnifique sur la Seine, il n'est pas rare d'y voir un shooting de mode par beau temps. Si vous venez avec votre amoureux ou amoureuse avec votre cadenas...bonne chance ! On sait maintenant qu'ils ont tous été enlevés, mais il reste des endroits aux abords du pont ou des "petits malins" ont réussi à sceller leurs amours ;) il suffit d'accrocher le sien aux autres et le tour est joué...mais attention, il me semble que c'est interdit... En attendant, s'y balader d'une rive à l'autre, sur un des rares ponts piétonniers de Paris est un vrai plaisir, on peut aussi s'y attarder et rester sur un des bancs, à regarder passer les bateaux, les péniches, et les badauds...

Some locks stay in spite of glass panels placed along the gates of the bridge.
The bridge however has not lost its charm because it offers a superb view of the Louvre.

Un pont mythique, le pont des amoureux !

Mais il n'a plus de cadenas, c'est dommage :(
