St. Ursanne Stone Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

With the blessing of the bridge saint Nepomuk, a stone structure has been crossing the Doubs near St-Ursanne since 1728.
Apparently, up until the 17th century, the wooden footbridge in St-Ursanne had to be rebuilt after every flood before the stone bridge was built. The four-arched bridge is now a cultural asset of national importance and is protected accordingly.
