  Mystery aqueduct ?
by JLBG
 
 

The Euro bankotes show a digest of typical European monuments but as it would have been a sensitive issue to choose which monuments to represent, they have made imaginary drawings. Each drawing is inspired by several European monuments. The result looks familiar to everybody but nobody can claim it is a particular monument.

However, the 5 euros note is somehow an exception. It shows an anonymous Roman aqueduct over a wide river. This cannot be Pont-du-Gard as the Gardon river has little water but it represents a three levels aqueduct. There is only one example of such three levels aqueduct in the world. Guess where!

Sorry, because of security printing, the note cannot be well scanned.
