Enrique Estevan Bridge is one of the bridges that crosses the Tormes River in Salamanca. Construction began in 1902 and after numerous interruptions it was inaugurated on 22 October 1913.

It is named after the councillor of the Salamanca city council who promoted the project of a new bridge for Salamanca, managing to avoid the modifications that were planned for the old Roman bridge.
