Van Gogh Bridge

Named after the employee responsible for guarding and handling it, the "Langlois Bridge" gained worldwide fame thanks to representations made by Van Gogh at the end of the 19th century.
The Van Gogh Bridge today

The bridge that can be seen a few kilometers south of the city center, over the Arles-to-Bouc canal, is not, however, the one painted by the artist. It is also not in its original location.

Technological progress, changes in town planning and the vagaries of war have meant that today we only see an identical example, once installed in Fos.

However, the desire to evoke the painter, as well as to restore an old technique, made it possible to replace the work in its functional integrity, and in a landscaped setting similar to that seen by Van Gogh.
