广济桥在潮州市之东,广济桥是中国古代著名桥梁之一,始建于南宋乾道六年(1170年),历时57年建成,全长515米,分东西两段18墩,中间一段宽约百米,因水流湍急,未能架桥,只用小船摆渡,当时称济州桥。
明宣德十年(1435年)重修,并增建五墩,称广济桥;正德年间,又增建一墩,总共24墩。桥墩用花岗石块砌成,是中国桥梁建筑中的一份宝贵遗产。中段用18艘梭船联成浮桥,能开能合,当大船、木排通过时,可以将浮桥中的浮船解开,让船只、木排通过。然后再将浮船归回原处。这是中国、也是世界上最早的一座开关活动式大石桥。
此桥在明代曾大修过五次,并在桥墩上建起24座形式不同的“望楼”。清雍正元年(1723年)又在浮桥两端石桥墩上置铁牛两只,牛背镌有“镇桥御水”四字,但早已不存。1958年由于交通需要,将梭船拆除,改为直通大桥。1980年重铸铁牛一只,将其置于桥上。民谚云:“到广不到潮,白白走一遭;到潮不到桥,枉费走一场”。
