| 01 Januari 1673 |
Pembangunan : Baru
Keterangan
Kintai Bridge was built by the third lord, Kikkawa Hiroyoshi
in 1673. The new stone piers replaced the old wooden ones. Though
thought to be flood-proof; the bridge was destroyed by a flood the next
year. As a result, the stone piers were redesigned for greater strength,
and a special tax was created to maintain the bridge. This maintenance
involved periodic rebuilding of the bridge: every 20 years for 3 spans
in the middle, every 40 years for 2 spans connecting to the riverside.
Consequently, the bridge remained undestroyed for 276 years

destroyed by floods several times before the construction of the iconic
Kintai Bridge.
