Ponts Couverts

The Ponts Couverts are three stone bridges and four square towers on the Ill at the edge of Strasbourg's Petite France quarter. Built from 1230 as part of the city's defences, the bridges lost their roofs in 1784 and were rebuilt in stone in 1865; the towers later served as prisons. Today the bridges are a pedestrian route.
