- 5 Reviews
Sidi M'Cid Bridge, spanning 164 meters across the Rhumel River in Constantine, Algeria, is a historic suspension bridge that was completed in 1912. Once the highest bridge in the world at 175 meters, it held this title until 1929. Designed by French engineer Ferdinand Arnodin, the bridge connects the Casbah with Sidi M'Cid Hill, offering stunning views of the gorge below. The bridge underwent significant restoration in 2000, with twelve of its cables replaced. Nearby, the Monument of the Dead commemorates those from Constantine who died in World War I, and a natural bridge beneath the structure adds a unique element to the landscape.

a breathtaking place worth visiting. it's just a shame that there are people who throw empty bottles from the bridge directly at cars driving on the road under the bridge.

I had the chance to see the bridge's holding system, the ropes which are wrapped around the rock! Beautiful view, you should visit it!
