This 3D model originated from Sketchup 13 before being adapted into all other available formats. Its native format remains .skp, while the 3dsmax scene is formatted for 2016 edition of 3ds Max and rendered with Vray 3.00. The monumental Aqueduct or Arcos de San Anton lies north of Plasencia within its walled area. Beneath its numerous arches passes N-630 or Ruta de la Plata highway. Constructed in the sixteenth century, Juan de Flanders designed this water conduit that formerly brought supply from Sierra de Cabezabellosa and El Torno. Its current condition reflects preservation of original features, boasting a total of 55 preserved arches. Seven of these support structures are positioned beneath Virgen del Puerto Hospital, whereas another seven flank San Anton, where a chapel dedicated to the Virgin was once located. Recent measurements demonstrate an extensive width spanning over 300 meters and feature well-defined pilasters coupled with standard arches bearing regular keystones. The aqueduct reaches its highest elevation of approximately 18 meters on its southernmost segment.
