Pont Saint-Bénezet Travel Reviews

Jul 09, 2007
Le Pont Saint-Bénezet, better known as Pont d'Avignon, has achieved world fame by a children's song. The bridge was built in the 12th century and the remaining part has survived some catastrophic floodings and battles. The original bridge consisted of 22 arches, but today only four of them remain, so the Pont Saint-Bénezet ends in the middle of nowhere!
Although the bridge IS very beautiful, they charge you with €4,- (or more) just to walk over it. My advice: just look at it.  Part of the Summer Break Road Trip 2007 travel blog
