Description
Français : Le vieux pont Saint-Laurent franchit la Saône entre la ville de Mâcon et Saint-Laurent sur Saône situé sur l'autre berge, dans le département de l'Ain. D'après le premier ouvrage, son établissement ne serait pas antérieur au XIème siècle, bien que certaines rumeurs l'attribuent à César. Le deuxième émet l'hypothèse que ce pont fut établi par Othon, comte de Macon et d'Auxonne ou par son fils Geoffroy, aaussi au XIème siècle. Il comporte, depuis 1550 semble-t-il, 12 arches. Il fût donc fortifié au XVIe siècle, puis refait en 1772 et en 1843. Le pont Saint-Laurent (XIVe siècle# a été l'objet de nombreuses réparations à cause des crues de la Saône.

Il est élargi en 1772 et gagne de nouvelles arches. Les mâconnais s'opposent à sa démolition pour permettre la navigation. Un canal de dérivation est créé dans les années 1980. Mâcon conserve son pont Saint-Laurent,qui est classé monument historique.

Mâcon retains Pont Saint-Laurent, which is a historical monument.
