Located in a particularly important area in the social context of the Roman and medieval settlement, the Ponte do Arco, over the River Ovelha, seems to be an example of medieval crossing.
Rua do Arco 4635-165 Folhada
Marco de Canaveses
The dimension of the span, the existence of chisels and the stonework itself show the importance of the engineering project for the transposition of this waterway, unpredictable and difficult to transpose, and make Ponte do Arco a classic example of the medieval bridge model .
It integrates the Route of the Romanesque of Tâmega and Sousa.
