120-metre-deep (390 ft) chasm that carries the Guadalevín River and
divides the city of Ronda, in southern Spain. The architect was José Martin
de Aldehuela, who died in Málaga in 1802. The chief builder was Juan
Antonio Díaz Machuca.

construction in 1909 and was completed in 1910. The bridge was renovated
