Saint-Pierre bridge

The Pont Saint-Pierre of Toulouse, over the Garonne

The Pont Saint-Pierre crosses the Garonne in the heart of Toulouse, linking the two banks of the river. The Toulouse audio-guided tour stops here to evoke this appreciated bridge, which offers fine views of the Pink City and the dome of the Hôtel-Dieu.

A bridge rebuilt over time

The Pont Saint-Pierre, about two hundred and forty metres long, links the centre of Toulouse to the Saint-Cyprien district, on the left bank. Several suspension bridges succeeded one another at this location over the decades, before the current structure. The bridge offers one of the finest perspectives over the Garonne, the dome of the Hôtel-Dieu and the pink-brick roofs of the city.
