Le pont du Gard a été construit par les Romains au Ier siècle, vers l’an 50. Il faisait partie d’un aqueduc de 50 kilomètres qui apportait l’eau de la source d’Uzès jusqu’à la ville de Nîmes. Aujourd’hui, c’est un chef-d’œuvre de l’ingénierie romaine.
Une prouesse romaine
Les Romains n’avaient ni pompes électriques ni machines modernes. Ils ont utilisé la gravité : l’eau descendait très lentement, avec une pente d’environ 25 centimètres par kilomètre, sur 50 kilomètres.
Un monument préservé
Le pont du Gard est inscrit au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO depuis 1985. Il est aussi le seul pont antique à trois étages encore debout aujourd’hui.
Vocabulaire utile
un aqueduc : une construction qui transporte l’eau d’un endroit à un autre
la gravité : la force qui fait tomber ou descendre les objets
une pente : une inclinaison, une différence de hauteur
un vestige : ce qui reste d’un monument ancien
Question de compréhension
Pourquoi le pont du Gard avait-il trois niveaux ?
