Fissac–Seguins footbridge

Highlight • Other

Footbridge connecting the villages of Fissac and Les Seguins, built in 1912.
A first wooden footbridge, completed in 1894, provided access for the children of Fissac to the Les Seguins school. Aging poorly, it was demolished a few months after the construction of the second.
Only a masonry clump in the middle of the Touvre River remains as a reminder of its existence.

Small quiet outing in the middle of the night to test various new features. The change of lighting becomes essential.
