Bridge of Serves

About

Bridge of Serves is a bridge to connect Pedome, Vila Nova de Famalicão, Portugal to Gondar, Guimarães, Portugal, crossing the Ave River. The bridge was classified as a National Monument in 1938. Construction probably started in 1185; the structure underwent reinforcement works in 1950 that left it completely changed from its medieval origins. It features four uneven arches, with cutwaters in the pillars.
