A historic iron and stone bridge crossing the Río San Juan in the lower part of the city, a few blocks from the Plaza de la Vigía. The current structure dates from the late 19th century and is one of several bridges that cross Matanzas's three rivers — the San Juan, the Yumurí, and the Camarioca. The bridge is still in daily use and offers a good view of the lower city and the bay beyond.
The surrounding area near the bridge and the riverside is one of the older neighbourhoods of Matanzas, with colonial-era houses in various states of repair. Worth walking across as part of a route between the Plaza de la Vigía and the waterfront.
