The Roman bridge, built by the Romans and featuring three arches, is still in use today.

The Ouvèze is a capricious river, as any villager will tell you. Yet the Romans decided to build a three-arch bridge just downstream from the present one. And it held up until 1620, when it was swept away by a huge flood. Its wooden replacement suffered the same fate two years later. Cautious, the inhabitants opted for tramline ferries. They chose a better location for a new stone bridge, and work began in 1640, lasting seven long years. The same bridge is still in use today.

un vieux pont de pierre
ce pont de pierre fût terminé en 1647. On emprunte ce pont pour entrer dans la ville. Celui ci enjambe l'OUVEZE. Il possède 3 arches
