This Old Bridge is the remnant of a 37-arch bridge linking Mantes-la-Jolie and Limay, partially destroyed in 1940.
Remnant of a 37-arch bridge that once linked Mantes-la-Jolie to Limay, its construction dates back to the mid-11th century - one of the oldest in France. It has undergone several alterations as the Seine flooded. At the end of the 18th century, it was demolished on the Mantes side and replaced by a new structure downstream, and in 1855, the other part of the new bridge, on the Limay side, was also brought into service. Immortalized by the painter Jean-Baptiste Corot and classified as a historic monument since 1923, the building was partially destroyed in 1940.

Le vieux pont de Limay est plutôt pas mal à voir ! Au début on n'y fait pas trop attention, mais il faut connaitre son histoire et après on le voit autrement :)
magnificent remains on the Seine, semblance to emerge from an setting of verdure.vue on the banks of the Seine, are a fine group with collegiate church of our lady and the tower, St maclou.finalement Mantes La Jolie is pretty!
magnificent remains intact, bring a history part of the second world war .....
