This medieval bridge spans the Adige River and is an integral part of the Castelvecchio Castle, which was built in the 14th century by the powerful della Scala family, the ruling dynasty of Verona at the time. The bridge’s design was revolutionary for its time, featuring three large arches with the central arch spanning an impressive 48.70 meters (about 160 feet), which made it the longest span of its kind in the world at the time of its construction. The bridge is built from red brick, a typical material of the Veronese Gothic style, and is fortified with crenelated battlements that were intended to protect those defending the castle.
