About Pont de Normandie
The Pont de Normandie is a cable-stayed bridge spanning the Seine estuary between Le Havre and Honfleur. Completed in 1995 after seven years of construction, it held the world record for longest cable-stayed bridge with its 856-meter central span. The bridge rises 214 meters above the water, supported by 184 stay cables, and was designed by engineer Michel Virlogeux who later created the Millau Viaduct.

The bridge's deck was designed with an airfoil profile similar to an airplane wing. Wind tunnel tests proved it can withstand winds exceeding 300 km/h, making it one of the most wind-resistant bridges ever built.
