"l puente de Piedra de Logroño es uno de los cuatro puentes que atraviesan el río Ebro a su paso por la capital riojana. También es denominado como Puente de San Juan de Ortega, en referencia a la capilla que existía en su margen izquierda (en honor al santo que tradicionalmente se cree constructor del puente original). La construcción actual, de Fermín Manso de Zúñiga, data de 1884, tras el derrumbe del antiguo puente en 1871.

El puente de piedra es uno de los símbolos de la ciudad, apareciendo en su escudo y siendo el lugar de entrada del Camino de Santiago a la ciudad."
