Jambes Bridge is an eight-arch stone bridge across the Meuse River, in Namur. It links the Castle on the left bank of the river to the lower part of the city on the other side. The bridge was constructed in the 16th century. It is the only old bridge in existence over the Meuse in the Belgian portion of its course.
