The Old Sospel Bridge (French: Vieux Pont de Sospel) is a bridge castle in Sospel, above the Bévéra river, in France.
History In the Middle Ages, Sospel was the chief town of the Lantosque valley viguerie and the county of Ventimiglia.
In 1217, a deed was drawn up "in Cespello ultra pontem" for the construction of a bridge, either in wood or stone.
A masonry bridge was first mentioned in 1522, when the first arch collapsed and had to be rebuilt.
