This bridge over the Guadalquivir river connects Palma del Río with its station. Its use has decreased after the construction of the Reina Sofía Bridge that crosses parallel to it and from which you have good views from here. However, in addition to going to the station, the inhabitants of Palma del Río cross the Iron Bridge every year in the pilgrimage of the Virgin of Belén, their patron saint.
