Pont du Diable, Hérault

It is located over a steep-sided gorge, about 4 km north-west of Aniane in the Hérault département.

Though subsequently widened and raised several metres around 1770, it has retained its original shape.

[1] Vehicular traffic is now catered for by a newer bridge, from which splendid views may be had of the original bridge and an aqueduct that takes water to the vineyards of Saint-Jean-de-Fos.

[2] The bridge has been listed by the French Ministry of Culture as a monument historique since 1935[1] and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of the World Heritage Sites of the Routes of Santiago de Compostela in France.

[2] There are two other bridges in Hérault known as "Pont du Diable", at Olargues and at Villemagne-l'Argentière.
