Origin of the name: The town of Ponte de Lima, the oldest in Portugal, derives its name from the bridge that crosses it.
Way of St. James: The bridge is an important crossing point on the Portuguese Way of St. James.
Legend: The legend of the Lima River, which runs under the bridge, tells that the Romans believed it to be the river of forgetfulness, which would have given rise to the myth that people who crossed it would forget their past lives.
