Bridges Over Toledo, Spain - Roman and 14th Century Delight

Amongst Toledo's historic attractions are two ancient bridges that are worth a look.

The Saint Martin's Bridge (Puente de San Martín) dates back to 14th century. The Roman-era Alcántara Bridge (Puente de Alcántara) dating back to 104 AD, rebuilt in 866 AD and repaired several times more recently.

The Saint Martin's Bridge and Alcántara Bridge both span the Tagus River (Río Tajo) as it winds through Toledo on its journey to Lisbon, Portugal before reaching the Atlantic Ocean.

I found some interesting pictures of these famous Toledo bridges in with my vintage Spain postcards. This is the Alcántara Bridge with Toledo outskirts in the background.
