01About the place
The Eiffel Bridge of Reynès is a metal viaduct located in the Vallespir region of France that crosses the Tec River.
Built between 1885 and 1888 and inaugurated in 1889 as part of the railway line between Elne and Arles-sur-Tech, it was constructed using the iconic riveted iron lattice technique patented by Gustave Eiffel's construction company for the Compagnie des chemins de fer du Midi. Its creation was key to boosting the local economy at the end of the 19th century, facilitating both the logistics of iron mining in the Canigou massif and the burgeoning thermal tourism of the valley.
