Why go
The mismatched stone and brick are the point: they record centuries of damage and rebuilding. The crossing also gives one of the best transitions between the cathedral quarter and Veronetta. The defining details are the surviving Roman arches with later sections of the five-span bridge; upstream toward the Roman Theatre and the slope of Castel San Pietro.
What to look for
- Compare the surviving Roman arches with later sections of the five-span bridge.
- Look upstream toward the Roman Theatre and the slope of Castel San Pietro.
Useful to know
- Cross on foot or by bicycle; vehicles do not use the bridge.
- Pair it with the Cathedral, Sant'Anastasia or Giardino Giusti.
