The inside story
Ultimate landmark of the city of Avignon, the Saint Bénézet Bridge is said to have been built in the 12th century .
Presumably, the story began with young Shepherd Saint Bénézet, called upon by divine voices to build a wooden bridge across the Rhone around 1177. Upon its completion in 1185, it became the only path connecting Lyon with the Mediterranean Sea, spanning 900 meters and 22 arches. Repeatedly washed away by the floods of the Rhône after being dismantled in 1226 during the Albigensian Crusade, it eventually became too costly to maintain, and thus was completely abandoned in the 17th century.
