The Jouarres Aqueduct (French: Pont-canal de Jouarres) is one of several aqueducts on the Canal du Midi. A little west of Jouarres le Vieux France, it carries the canal over a small stream. It is one of three original aqueducts created by Pierre-Paul Riquet during the building of the canal from 1667 to 1681.
It is not to be confused with the Aqueduc de l'étang de Jouarres, which is some 800 m east and carries the Canal du Midi over the Ruisseau de Vidal and with the Aqueduc d'Azille, an irrigation construction from the 19th century.
