The old bridge of Polleur

Description

The exact date of construction of this Roman site is actually not known.  The bridge crosses the Hoëgne and was in fact on the ancient Roman road from Trier to Tongeren. Damaged by numerous crossings and a violent flood, it was rebuilt in 1767 and renovated again in 1978. The builders were careful not to alter its appearance, in order to retain its architectural beauty. The old bridge of Polleur is a listed Walloon heritage site. On both sides of the parapet we find two remarkable bronze works, a Christ dating back to 1767 and the Virgin and Child - stolen in the 1990s - replaced by a work by Jacques Dubois.
