    This new bridge is one of the oldest bridges in Toulouse. Not the oldest because the bridge of Tounis builds it. I urge you to go see him. So this bridge is massive and what is interesting are these holes in the pillars. It is beautiful and thanks to them, it will have withstood all the floods of this capricious river.

    Beautiful!
    It is worth visiting this place, as the surroundings are beautiful too. It makes a very pleasant walk, and you have a very beautiful view of the river. I went on a Saturday late in the afternoon and was quite moving, still it was a good walk to get there.

    Interesting bridge, lovely views
    Interesting old bridge that links the two banks of the city with some wonderful views over the river and early morning boating club exploits. Impressive storm defences as well nearby. Toulouse suffered major flooding in times gone by and the engineers of this bridge solved it with the holes in the bridge between the arches. More modern storm gates have recently been installed.

Artist James Colomina has created different sculptures around the city and one that is still there is the Little Red Boy sitting inside the bridge. Don't miss this if you take a riverfront walk. We did the walk on a Saturday evening, and it was pretty crowded with the younger set, obviously a favorite hangout. Lots of security evident though and part of the older generation we did not feel ill-at ease.

We passed this lovely old 16th-century stone bridge on our way to visit the Place de Le Daurade, called the Pont Neuf (French for New Bridge).
Construction started in 1544 by local master masons and carpenters, and was opened just over a hundred years later in 1659. It replaced the Pont Daurade bridge which had
linking the old pilgrim hospital of Sainte-Marie de la Daurade, to the Benedictine monastery on the other side of the river.
In 1686 the city added a triumphal archway, but it was removed in 1860 as it restricted the width of traffic passing over the bridge.
The stone arches of the bridge are not all the same size, and when we were passing by, local students had placed a red devil on one of the bridges buttresses for fun.

TIP: Sometimes on the embankment wall by the Henri Martin promenade on next to the Pont Neuf bridge there are artwork on displays

The bridge is just a bridge, although certainly a remarkable one. The area around it is very nice with lots of cafes and shops. I recommend walking down the ramp to the waterfront and reading the history of the area, it's a lovely testament to the will of the people of Toulouse to preserve this area. Certainly worth the walk/bus ride if you're in Toulouse.

Take the gratis electric minibus to the embankment of the Garonne to see and cross this beautiful bridge. The original bridge is still standing ( or at least one of its arches ) near the old hospital / now a hotel. The gardens near the bus station are a good place to relax by the river. Enjoy.

This is a nice bridge to review from the river bank. Look out for the small figure placed in the first arch. There are a number of Cafes/ Bars around to stop at for a pleasant drink and something to eat.

Really nice bridge for poetic pictures. Watch on maps for a place called Point de Vue and from there you will have a great view of the bridge on your pictures. It is also good to have accomodation close to it. I can only recommend!

Although it’s name means new bridge - as in Paris - this one is the oldest still in operation in Toulouse. The construction lasted almost 90 years in between 16th and 17th centuries.
This bridge was strong enough and above all well designed to resist to many floods including the terrible flood of 1875, when the water overpassed the full bridge. Thanks to 7 irregular arches, with holes (dégueuloirs in French) allowing the water to pass through and its shape, this bridge is still there.
Moreover it’s a beautiful building and a nice place, during the day or at night.

The view is great during the day, but try to loop back for a night time view as well. We were there just after a tain so the water was brown and murky, and the wind kept the water rippling (no calm reflection photos) but it was still beautiful to see and appreciate.

The Pont Neuf connects the historic center of Toulouse to St-Cyprien across the Garonne River. It is a beautifully architected bridge with beautifully landscaped river banks. A great place to wander and/or sit and marvel at the most pleasant surrounding views.

It is a classic spot in the city. Makes for great pictures. You have a nice view of both sides of the city, the region is surrounded by trees and its cool to see the sunset from it. Still, it as a bridge and honestly there is only so much you can expect from a visit to it.
