Santiago Bridge is a medieval stone bridge that has carried pilgrims on the Portuguese Way of St. James for centuries. Its sturdy arches and cobbled surface evoke a sense of history, and the bridge remains in use today for pedestrians and light traffic. The bridge offers views of the Lérez River and the surrounding greenery. It's a tangible link to Pontevedra's past and a must-see for those following the Camino. Visitors can imagine the countless pilgrims who crossed here on their journey to Santiago de Compostela.
