There is also a persistent legend about its origins that mentions that Gustave Eiffel, at the request of president Porfirio Díaz, designed the bridge in the 1870s.

In 2000, the local government remodeled the space into a museum, which would last 16 years. Since then, the bridge has been abandoned and has received partial maintenance.
