Pont de Grenelle
Bridge in Paris, France / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Pont de Grenelle-Cadets de Saumur, formerly known as Pont de Grenelle (English: Grenelle Bridge. "Cadets de Saumur" is the name of the students of the Cavalry School) is a bridge that crosses the Seine River in Paris, France. It connects the city's 15th and 16th arrondissements, and passes through the Île aux Cygnes. Constructed of steel, it is a girder bridge. The current bridge was constructed in 1966, replacing an earlier bridge that had stood since 1873. The bridge passes behind a replica of the Statue of Liberty.
