In ancient times, the bridge was a vitally important route, connecting Algarinejo with the Priego– Iznájar and Montefrío–Loja cattle routes. This road was strengthened due to its importance as a border crossing during the Nasrid period, so its origins are often dated to possibly the fourteenth century.

The bridge connects the waters of the Retamar Stream and the Turca River. It currently lacks its seven spans due to a severe storm in 1960, which necessitated the construction of a new bridge in the same location. Despite having only three large spans, it still retains its old name.
