The pont de Grenelle is the second bridge from the top, passing through the southern tip of the Île aux Cygnes.

The pont de Grenelle is a bridge in Paris, France that crosses the Seine river. It connects the city's 15th and 16th arrondissements, and passes through the Île aux Cygnes. Constructed of steel, it is a girder bridge. The current bridge was constructed in 1966, replacing an earlier bridge that had stood since 1873. The bridge passes behind a replica of the Statue of Liberty.
