Pont de Navilly: it was built on the Doubs at the end of the 18th century, from 1782/1785 to 1790, on plans of Emiland-Marie Gauthey. This highway-bridge, on the RN 73 between Pares and Châlon-sur-saône, comprises 5 arches and has a total range of 156 meters. Damaged during the war in 1944 and weakened by the aggregate extraction in the bed of the river, it was several times consolidated to resist raw of Doubs and the important circulation of the heavy trucks.

It was used as point of passage of the Line of demarcation and was the place of the racist execution of a Senegalese soldier the July 23rd, 1940 by the German army as recalled by an affixed plate in the vicinity.
