"..Pont Alexandre III was constructed at the same time as the Grand Palais and Petit Palais, as a part of the 1900 World Exposition. Pont Alexandre III has a typical Art Nouveau style, with charming lamps, nymphs and angels along the sides.

The construction of the beautiful bridge of Pont Alexandre III took place between the years 1896 and 1900. As with many others of the World Exposition buildings, the bridge is a marvel of 19th century engineering. Pont Alexandre III is built with the rare method of using a single 6 meter high steel arch and counterweights on each side to balance it up."
