Eiffel’s Bridge in Germans Sàbat (Girona)

The pedestrian bridge next to Plaça Manuel Josep Iglesias Joan in the neighbourhood Germans Sàbat in Girona is one of eight Eiffel bridges that Gustave Eiffel, of the Eiffel Tower fame, had engineered for the Girona railway company.

In 1876, the bridge was mounted right in the city centre, on the street Carrer Cerverí. As Girona grew, the bridge had also moved around, until it landed on its present spot — a quiet residential area on the outskirts of the city.
