The Alcántara Bridge is one of Toledo's most iconic monuments, with a history dating back to Roman times and an architecture that has evolved over the centuries. Originally built by the Romans in the 3rd century AD, as part of the network of roads that connected the Empire. Its name comes from the Arabic "al-qanṭarah," meaning "the bridge," given by the Muslims after its reconstruction in the 10th century.

The bridge over the Guazalete River opens the way for the Roman road from Cordoba to Toledo. About 50 metres from the bridge is the so-called Peña Manaera, a spring that rises in the crevice of a rock and that never stops flowing even in the summer.
