Alcántara Bridge is another Imperial Roman bridge that still exists today. The stone arch bridge was built over the Tagus River after the Roman Emperor Trajan issued an order in 98 CE. Construction of Alcántara Bridge began in 104 CE and ended two years later. Although the bridge is currently in good condition, it has had to be repaired several times throughout its history. Most of the bridge’s damage was due to wars rather than the elements. Various parts of Alcántara Bridge were destroyed at different time periods until the main pillars were completely repaired in 1969.
