BREATHTAKING
VIADUCTS
Impressive!
Totally in metal, from
the piles to the roadway, the four viaducts built upon the
Sioule, the Bouble, and the Bellon by P.O. cie (Paris-Orleans)
in view to facilitate the railway of Commentry-Gannat
(nowadays the link of the main line Bordeaux-Lyon) are really
masterpieces of railroad structures. Even today, the
sole sight of these steel giants right in the middle of the
country, built between 1863 and 1869 by Gustave Eiffel's
company which were the first significant orders, remain
striking. In the northeast of Gannat, Rouzat and Neuvial
(listed in the additional inventory of Historic Building) are
imposing : 180m long and 59m high for the first one, 160m
long and 44m high for the second one ! A size all the
more noteworthy for this of Rouzat because it built in five
months only. The two others, located in the northeast of
Bellenaves, on the commune of Louroux de Bouble, went out of
the Ateliers du Nord which will realise few years after, the
impressive viaduct of The Fades : the one of the Bouble
has five tubular piles, make no more than 395m long on 48m
high. Those special characteristics allowed them to be listed
in the inventory of the Natural Monuments and Settings.
To discover Neuvial and Rouzat, we need
to take D37, Gannat-Saint Bonnet de Rochefort, which goes
between theirs piles. For the two others, we have to make a
detour via small paths. A rambling path starting from Louroux
de Bouble drive us to an unique point of view on the viaduct
of the Bouble.
