, 15/10/2011] The Avignon bridge, or St Benezet's bridge was built in the 12th century to connect Avignon with Villeneuve-les-Avignon.

Nursery Rhyme Pont
Date published: Aug 2007
Author: Lonely Planet Guide
Article
This well known bridge, thanks to a famous nursery rhythm, was "completed in 1185". The "Pont St-Bénézet" was built to link "Avignon with the settlement across the Rhône", today known as the town of Villeneuve-les-Avignon. It measured 900 meters lengthwise, and was made of wood. It had been "repaired and rebuilt several times", before "in the mid-1600s", 18 of its "22 spans were washed away".
