The Digoin aqueduct is both a curiosity and a rarity. This 243-meter bridge allows barges to pass over the Loire River. It is also open to pedestrians and cyclists, who are asked to walk alongside their bicycles during the crossing. This remarkable structure was designed in the 1880s and 1890s. It allows the Loire Lateral Canal to connect with the Canal du Centre a little further downstream.
