Roman senators believing that Julius Caesar build the permanent bridge over the Rhine in 55 B.C. voted for twenty-day-thanksgiving pray. Also, many historians at the end of XXth century believed in it and described this bridge as high-water structure made of processed elements. In author's opinion constructing a four-hundred-metre-long bridge within ten days was possible for Caesar only due to the fact that: - it was a low-water bridge, - wooden elements of load-carrying structure and those of supports were not processed, - while building the bridge, trestle supports were used, with piles penetrating the river bed at a small depth and being driven not separately but pairwise, - main elements of the structure were linked by ropes. In 73 B.C. Gaius Julius Caesar became a member of Collegium Pontificurn and ten years later he was dignified to the rank of the highest priest - Pontifex Maximus - the greatest bridge builder. Building the bridge over the Rhine within ten days he proved that he deserved this title. For over 2000 years since the bridge was built there were many contradictory interpretations regarding its construction.
