Built over the Kızılırmak near Köprüköy in Keskin district, the bridge dates to the Seljuk period, around the 13th century. It is 110 metres long and 6 metres wide, built on solid rock foundations with a sloped central section to balance it within the riverbed. Since the Kapulukaya Dam came into operation, part of its foundation piers has been submerged.
