The construction of the bridge took place during the Roman occupation due to the problems that the Aguisejo river posed for communication and exchange between different areas. Without being a complex construction it safeguarded any problem of passage until several centuries later. It would be in the 14th century when restoration and improvement works would be carried out, giving rise to a much more imposing bridge. Already in 1660 the bridge would be built for the first time in stone, although it would be quite different from the current one, lacking even the characteristic arches. Between 1781 and 1782, the brothers Pedro and J. Antonio de la Fuente Ortiz carried out a remodeling of the bridge, taking advantage of the materials of the original and providing the structure with its characteristic arches. Since then there have been several repair works, being possibly the most outstanding the one that took place in 2019 and the major work by the Confederación Hidrográfica del Duero for the "Encauzamiento del Río Aguisejo" in the seventies of the last century.
