An unholy crossing?

Is this ancient bridge still standing thanks to a diabolical deal? Legend has it that, back in the early 1500s, a Bulgarian stonemason named Dimitar was given an engineering problem. He was hired to build a bridge that wouldn't collapse into the rushing Arda river, as had all its predecessors. Naturally, he turned to the supernatural and made an unholy pact with the devil.
