The city of Zamora lacked of bridge during almost three centuries, existing the called ford of don Garcia like passage area. It is not known if the old bridge was destroyed by natural causes, or intentionally by warlike causes in the passive defense of the city against the Muslim raids coming from the south of the peninsula during the middle age. The bridge gave transport service to the so-called via de la Plata. At the beginning of the 21st century you can still see remains of the bridge very close to the olive trees of Olivares.
