<jats:p>The non-destructive technique known as Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) has been used in the analysis of historical buildings in recent years. It provides insights into the internal structure of the structural elements, such as layer thicknesses, and potential irregularities. In this investigation the ERT technique was applied to the ancient San Ignacio Bridge, located in the state of Aguascalientes, Mexico. The resulting resistivity profiles unveil the primary construction stages of the bridge, which corroborate and enhance the historical information regarding its construction phases. Additionally, the profiles indicate the presence of moisture concentrations in the pavement fillings, which could be attributed to rainwater infiltration. The usefulness of the ERT technique applied to edified patrimony is demonstrated in this study.</jats:p>
