The Bridge of Mantible, a ruined stone crossing near Logroño, Spain, spans the Ebro river between La Rioja and the Basque Country, connecting El Cortijo and Laserna. Its origins remain contested: some historians date construction to the second century during Rome's imperial period, while others argue for an eleventh-century build contemporary with the Puente La Reina, suggesting both served to link Nájera and Pamplona in the Kingdom of Navarre. Originally 164 meters long, 5 meters wide, and 30 meters at its highest point, the bridge was built with seven semicircular arches, of which only two remain relatively intact today—testament to the excellent quarried stone employed in its construction. The structure had fully deteriorated by the mid-sixteenth century. Designated a Bien de Interés Cultural in 1983, it is part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
