When we cross the bridge, we have beautiful views of the Tagus and San Juan de los Reyes. Its date of construction is not known with certainty. It was part of the city's defensive system next to the Alcántara bridge. Built entirely with granite ashlars, it consists of five slightly pointed arches, the central one standing out for its size. It has two defensive towers with an irregular polygonal plan, crenellated, one at each end. The bridge was used as a pontazgo, collecting the various taxes - common in the Middle Ages to finance public works - that were paid for the passage of different goods and migratory livestock, linking the city with the Montes de Toledo region and with Estremadura. In addition, the bridge served the muleteers who transported granite from Ventas con Peña Aguilera, marble from San Pablo de los Montes, charcoal or other products from the area. During the reign of Charles II, at the end of the 17th century, the bridge was partially renovated, widening its entrances and modifying the interior tower, whose door was topped with a large imperial shield flanked by the figures of two seated kings and two stone plaques. that detail the characteristics of the work and its completion date, 1690. A century later, in 1760 and with Charles III as king, the bridge was paved, as indicated by a plaque carved in stone located on the right parapet. It was declared a National Artistic Monument in 1921, supporting the passage of road traffic until 1976, from which date only pedestrian use was allowed.
