LE PONT SAINT AMBROIX

Pont Saint-Ambroix, part of the Ambrussun archaeological site, dated 1857, Gallargues-le-Montueux.
The bridge, which is part of the archaeological site of Ambrussum, dates from the 1st century and allowed the main Roman road of the Narbonnaise, the Domitian Way, to cross the Vidourle. The bridge was used until 1299 and a drawing executed around 1620 still shows it with four arches. We know from La Chronologiette by Pierre Prion (1744-1759) that the sixth arch was washed away by a flood in 1745. Gustave Courbet's work, Le Pont d'Ambrussum, dated 1857, shows the fourth arch, still visible at the time; it collapsed in 1933.
