With the blessing of the bridge saint Nepomuk, a stone structure has been crossing the Doubs near St-Ursanne since 1728.
Apparently, up until the 17th century, the wooden footbridge in St-Ursanne had to be rebuilt after every flood before the stone bridge was built. The four-arched bridge is now a cultural asset of national importance and is protected accordingly.

Beautiful Jura hike, which initially runs along the ridge (Clos du Doubs) with great views, before leading down to the wildly romantic Doubs and finally along its banks back to the pretty little town of St-Ursanne.
