The Gudmont-Villiers Mobile Bridge is a mobile bridge that spans the Marne. The bridge was built in 1892 and is one of the few remaining examples of this type of engineering in France. It can be raised and lowered hydraulically to allow boats to pass underneath. The bridge is located on the D 200b road, which connects Gudmont-Villiers to Joinville, a town with a rich heritage and a castle.
