Comment

Originally a steel bridge designed by Gustave Eiffel, it was inaugurated in 1901. Destroyed by the Germans in 1944, it was rebuilt between 1956 and 1958 as a 203-meter-long arched bridge. The structure had been attacked by corrosion due to the marine environment, and repair work began at the end of 2009. After being interrupted and postponed for several months, work resumed in September 2010, for a planned duration of one year. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Trinit%C3%A9-sur-Mer
