Review:
The Pont de Pierre, also known as the ‘Stone Bridge,’ is a 1600-foot-long and 62-foot-wide bridge that connects the left bank of the Garonne River to Quartier de la Bastide on the right side. Designed under Napoleon I, the bridge was inaugurated in 1822 and features 17 arches, one for each letter in Napoleon Bonaparte's name. The bridge was the only connection between the left and right banks for over 150 years in the 18th-century, and today stands as a border between the river and maritime domains in the port of Bordeaux.
