The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
L'originalité technique de ce pont suspendu du 19e siècle tient au système de câbles formés de barres d'acier articulées, aternativement doubles et quadruples, et non pas d'une pièce. L'ouvrage a été peu remanié depuis sa construction, hormis un renforcement du tablier.

History
The technical originality of this suspended bridge of the 19th century lies in the system of cables formed of articulated steel bars, alternately double and quadruple, and not of a single piece. The structure has been little altered since its construction, except for a reinforcement of the deck.
