Puente de San Pablo (St. Paul Bridge)

46 reviews of Puente de San Pablo (St. Paul Bridge)

A Place to Feel the City

The most famous bridge of Cuenca is made of iron, has a reddish color and rectilinear lines and is located on the Huecar River, very close to the Casas Colgadas and from where you can take some of the best pictures of the city. This place is better than any other to see and feel the architectural elements, the urban development and the symbolic content of this city-landscape: the river, the slopes of the ravine...

The current bridge was built in 1902, following the architectural tendencies of that time, and measures about 100 meters long. It is made of five arches and very high columns.

If you suffer from vertigo you should cross without looking down too much. This bridge replaced an old one made of stone that was built between 1533 and 1589 and which collapsed. It was located at the same place, connecting the San Pablo Convent and the urban area on the ravine of the Huecar River.
