Built of cut stone and inaugurated in 1838, the Bethlehem Bridge in Clamecy is one of the nerve centers of the city. It spans both the Yonne and the Nivernais canal, which blend together under its arches. Every summer, dozens of makeshift boats are launched at its feet, during the very popular and festive “phony descent”. An event worth seeing!
