Old/Roman Bridge πŸŒ‰ Tavira

Highlight β€’ Bridge

Despite its name, the bridge itself is neither Roman nor has a Roman origin. It was built when Tavira belonged to al-Andalus (the Islamic Domain of Iberia), most probably in the 2nd half of the 12th century. Then, for a few decades Tavira was an independent commune, before being submitted to the Almohade Empire.
The bridge was a fundamental element of the medieval defence of Tavira and its associated main road, limited with towers in both sides. It had houses on it in the Middle Ages. By 1550 it had apparently a movable wooden floor which could be removed for security reasons. The old bridge collapsed in 1655, then completely rebuilt in its present form. tavira.algarvetouristguide.com/attractions/the-old-roman-bridge
