Roman Bridge of Idanha-a-Velha

Highlight • Bridge

The ancient Roman road that connected Augusta Emerita (Mérida) to Bracara Augusta (Braga) passed through here, crossing the river on a bridge that has now disappeared, of which only the foundations remain. Over these bridges stands the current granite Ponte Velha, whose appearance harks back to ancient times but which, in fact, is a Philippine work, dating from the 17th century or later.

Idanha-a-Velha is a town in the Portuguese municipality of Idanha-a-Nova and has 79 inhabitants in 2001. Idanha-a-Velha is a very old town located on the Rio Ponsul river, which was built on the Roman Aegitania, the remains of which are still visible. For tourists, the town can only be visited on foot, car traffic is limited to residents. Among the many monuments that the town has to offer are parts of the old city walls, the remains of a 16th-century church built on the remains of a 4th-century church, a fortress ruin and a restored olive oil press. The remains of the Roman bridge over the Rio Ponsul are also well preserved.
