Historique
Pont construit au 18e siècle par la communauté d'Evisa pour permettre aux bergers transhumants et aux habitants qui ensemençaient des terres dans le Sia de se déplacer plus commodément. C'est un ouvrage à une arche, à l'appareil en moëllons de granit irréguliers. Ses culées prennent appui sur de gros blocs rocheux.
