The Puente Nuevo is a beautiful bridge spanning a huge ravine. It is the newest and largest of three bridges that span the 120-m (390-ft) chasm that carries the Guadalevín River and divides the city of Ronda. The bridge was built in the late 18th century, due to the need for communicating the oldest district of the city with the newest area.

Better views of the 18th-century bridge can be found from the Plaza Maria Auxiliadora.

Centro de Interpretación del Puente Nuevo

The Centro de Interpretación del Puente Nuevo or Visitors Centre of Puente Nuevo is located on a lower floor, which you can reach through a staircase between the bridge and the hotel Parador.

Thanks to an audiovisual itinerary and multimedia panels, you will discover the history of the bridge including how it was built  and its relationship with the surrounding landscape.
