Ponte de Rodas (Arches Bridge)

Vila Verde
Description

The ‘Ponte de Rodas’ (Arches Bridge) above a serene stretch of the River Homem, joins the municipalities of Amares on the right bank, and Vila Verde on the left bank. It was built in medieval times and was at that time part of the road that connected Ponte da Barca to Braga.  It consists of three unequal arches - two small entire back and a slightly pointed arch.  It also has two upstream carving strong tides and two downstream buttresses that sustain the force of the waters, as well as old stone guards.
