FR C'est ici que l'on trouve un ancien pont romain, très modeste qui a a traversé les âges depuis l'époque romaine et la voie qui passait là.
Sans doute, à l'époque romaine, la rivière était plus grosse que le simple fil d'eau, sans quoi les romains aurait créé un gué mais aujourd'hui, loin de tout, il semble être en train de mourir paisiblement.
EN It is here that we find an ancient Roman bridge, very modest, which has crossed the ages since Roman times and the path that passed there.
Undoubtedly, in Roman times, the river was bigger than the simple stream, otherwise the Romans would have created a ford but today, far from everything, it seems to be dying peacefully.
