Puente de Herrera

Carretera del Puente Nuevo, 35

Raised to save the river Guadarrama, for years this bridge supported road traffic, until the last third of the twentieth century. It is a robust Herrerian bridge, with a single eye formed by a wide arch and built with great granite ashlar. The stirrups are reinforced with buttresses of triangular plant. On the arch and on both facades are distinguished two reliefs that represent a rectangular grids of five bars, the symbol of the martyrdom of San Lorenzo, topped with a handle. Hence this step is also known as Bridge of the Grills.
