  • 1. Briare aqueduct Pont-canal de Briare Briare
    The Briare Aqueduct carries the Canal latéral à la Loire over the River Loire on its journey to the River Seine in France. It replaced a river-level crossing from the canal to meet the Briare Canal that was hazardous in times of flood.

It is part of the Canal latéral à la Loire, not, as is commonly believed, the Briare Canal.
