Le Pont Valentré, built in the 14th Century can only be crossed on foot so plenty of time to admire the view. It took 70 years to build and the reason why is told in the legend involving the devil here

A more rustic but impressive small bridge whose stones were cleaved from a single granite boulder. Immervad Bridge in Northern Schleswig has been here since 1786 originally for cattle breeders to transport their livestock from Denmark to markets in Hamburg and Rendsburg, Germany.

Interesting story about the bridge and the Devil.
Great stamps this week.
Never try to sell your soul to the devil!
I would go out of my way to see that small bridge in Denmark.
I've read a lot of stories of bridges involving the participation of the Devil, and I wonder why.
The stamps are very interesting.
