<FONT face=宋体> 广济桥又名通济桥、碧天桥,俗称长桥。广济桥横跨京杭运河,势若长虹。全长83米,高13米,上下共有169级台阶,为京杭运河上唯一的一座七孔石拱桥。中间最大的石拱跨度为15.6米,北南各有三个对应的石拱,跨度分别为11.8米、8米、5.4米。
广济桥相传是由唐朝大将尉迟恭督修的。可据民国《杭县志稿》的编纂者查考,发觉尉迟恭一生中从未到过浙江,况且西险大塘及桥梁等建筑大抵在唐大历之后,与尉迟恭在世时相距200余年。后这200年后,又出了个尉迟恭,此人是个著名人石匠、建筑师,人称大匠尉迟恭。他是唐代宝历年间人,曾在西险大塘主持修建成章湾陡闸。由此看来,那“大将”应是“大匠”之误,此桥应是大匠尉迟恭所建,距今应有一千一百多年历史了。
今存广济桥系明代弘治十一年(1498)由鄞人陈守清募建。明朝弘治年间,大匠所建之桥早已塌圯,百姓往来均靠摆渡,每逢风急浪高,总有人落水遇难。此时,宁波义士陈守清挺身而出,募资建桥。因所需资金甚巨,故陈守清便搭乘粮船至京城,以铁链束缚自身向来往官民募捐。此事惊动了官府,太后、太子纷纷助金赐银,朝廷命官也跟着解囊,使陈守清募到了巨款。历时九年,终于建成这七孔长桥,时为公元1498年。嘉靖九年(1530),桥裂,里人吕塘急公好义,两次捐巨金修耸,并用木材和石块在桥的两边各填一孔,使之成为五孔,使桥基更为坚固。清康熙癸卯年(1663),广济桥又危在旦夕,里人轻利急公,纷纷捐资,复又修葺,里人卓天寅为重修长桥书《重修长桥碑铭》。康熙甲午年(1714)又修迄于今。从上世纪90年代至今,政府为了保护广济桥,先后斥巨资对其进行加固,运河改道,实施封航等,从而有效保护七孔古桥——广济桥。
1983年6月24日,余杭县人民政府将广济桥命名为“余杭县重点文物保护单位”,1989年又被命名为“浙江省重点文物保护单位”。</FONT></P>
