Pont de la Victoire
The bridge of the Victoire (in Armenian: Հաղթանակիկամուրջ, Haghtanaki Gamourtch ) crosses the throats of the river Hrazdan with Erevan, the capital of the Arménie.
The bridge with two pillars and three arcs was built out of stone in 1945 and was baptized " victoire" in honor of the defeat of the Nazi S at the end of the Second world war. It was indicated by engineer Simon Ovnanian and the architects Artaches Mamadjanian and Achot Asatrian.
Located at the south-western exit of the city, it makes it possible to connect Erevan to the International airport of Zvartnots, Etchmiadzin and the district of Ajapniak. West coast, it is with the crossroads of the street of Athens and of the avenue of the admiral Isakov and is, with the crossroads of the street Khorhrdaran and the Avenue Machtots.
In 2005, the bridge was closed for restorations. The rumor says that cracks had been discovered on the pillars of the bridge.
