OVIPOSITION MARIA PIA
The oldest arch bridge in the city, now closed to traffic for safety reasons.
A true icon of Oporto, built by Gustave Eiffel, it is the oldest arch bridge in the city, which linked the two banks of the Douro River between Oporto and Vila Nova de Gaia; of the first suspension bridge, only two obelisks remain on the Ribeira side, as it was refurbished in the early 1990s. Now closed to traffic for safety reasons, this bridge has been in operation for 114 years after its inauguration by King Dom Luis and Queen D. Maria Pia in 1877. It is a little further upstream from Bridge D. Luis I.

Celui de Dom Luis vaut plus le coup de vous déplacer.
n'est plus en service aujourd'hui. ne mérite pas forcément le détour.
