View from the Saint-Laurent footbridge

You are crossing the Isère River, thanks to the Saint-Laurent footbridge. As you know, it was Grenoble's only bridge until the 17th century. Originally a wooden toll bridge, it was repeatedly swept away by the river and rebuilt countless times. It was, of course, the only access to the right bank, leading to Chambéry and the whole of the Rhône valley. Now entirely pedestrian, the bridge links the historic centre with the Cymaise square, and offers a breathtaking 360° view of the quays, with the beloved Belledonne mountain range in the background.
