The Burgo Bridge is a medieval stone bridge that crosses the Lérez River in Pontevedra. Originally built in the 12th century, it was a key crossing on the Portuguese Way of St. James. Today, visitors can walk across its ancient arches and admire the river views, while the bridge's weathered stones tell stories of pilgrims and merchants. Its central location makes it a natural starting point for exploring the old town.
