  • El Puente Mayor del Tormes, más conocido como Puente Romano de Salamanca es un puente que cruza el río Tormes a la altura de Salamanca (España).​ Se ha denominado tradicionalmente como la puente mayor y como la puente principal que da su acceso a la parte meridional de la ciudad. El puente se presenta en el siglo XXI como fruto de varias restauraciones. Una de las catástrofes que más le afectaron fue la riada de San Policarpo (noche de 26 de enero) del año 1626.​ Hasta comienzos del siglo XX no pierde la condición de paso único de acceso a la ciudad, e incluso durante una década, hasta 1973, siguió soportando el tráfico pesado. A partir de la construcción de un tercer puente para el tráfico rodado queda como un paso exclusivo de uso peatonal y de andadura. Fue declarado Monumento Histórico Artístico el 3 de junio de 1931,​ y Bien de Interés Cultural desde el año 1998. La importancia del puente como símbolo de la ciudad se puede ver en el primer cuartel del escudo de la ciudad (junto con su pétreo toro-verraco).​ (es)

It was declared Artistic Historic Monument on June 3, 1931, and Bien de Interés Cultural in 1998. Until the beginning of 20th century it carried the main road into the city, and continued to bear heavy traffic until 1973. Since the construction of a third bridge for road traffic it remains exclusive for pedestrians. The bridge is actually a construction of two bridges separated by a central fortification: the old bridge which extends along the portion near the city is of Roman origin, and the new bridge. Of the twenty-six arches, only the first fifteen date from Roman times. The stone used in its construction differs in origin, while employed in Roman bridge area is originally from the granite quarries of Los Santos (Béjar), the stone used in the hispana part and more modern bridge, comes from the area of Ledesma. The bridge has been restored on numerous occasions and has survived several attempts at demolition. Many of the restorations have been poorly documented, leaving for the study of archaeologists a great part of the work of determination, dating and explaining the ancient construction techniques. The date of the construction of the bridge is not precisely known, but is among the mandates of the Emperors Augustus (27 B. C.-14 D. C.) and Vespasian (69-79), making it a bimillennium architectural monument. (en)
