Roman Bridge, Saint-Thibéry

A partly surviving Roman bridge on the Via Domitia in Saint-Thibery, southern France, crossing the Herault river 17 km east of Beziers. Built during the reign of Augustus (30 BC-14 AD), it was the longest bridge on the Via Domitia, originally approximately 150 metres long with nine arches spanning 10-12 metres. The Romans used volcanic stone from nearby Mount Ramus with large pebble apparatus and mortar blockage. Only four arches remain today after flood damage before 1536 and in 1683. Listed as a Historical Monument since 1862.
