Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Professional Photographer David Adam Kess - A Black and White Photo of the Aqueduct of Segovia in Spain - The Aqueduct, one of the best preserved ancient monuments and has 44 double arches (or 88 when counted individually) and 79 single arches -- a total of 167.

The Aqueduct of Segovia was built during the reign of Roman Emperor Trajan and is still in use today, carrying water from the Frío river to the town of Segovia. The bridge, which consists of 24,000 granite blocks, was constructed without the use of mortar and each of its 167 arches is more than nine meters high.

The Aqueduct of Segovia was completed in AD 50.
