Pont Loumé

From this bridge you can see the houses on stilts overlooking the Saleys. Even if the Saleys is channelled in good weather, it can exceptionally happen that the water reaches the level of the arches of the bridge

Opposite, the Church of St. Vincent, dominated by its bell tower, an ancient watchtower. Together with the fortifications it was part of the defensive system of the town.

A few steps away, in the rue des Puits Salants, the Salt Museum tells the history of Salies; a salt workshop has been reconstructed there.
