    Puente de Besalua

    We walk through the Old Bridge of Besalú, it is believed that it was built in the 11th century on a Roman bridge, but it was rebuilt in the 14th century. After the destruction that suffered in the civil war was rebuilt again. It consists of two sections at an angle and in the center is the tower with a small arch. We visited the center of the city, flooded with streets and facades as part of its medieval heritage.
