Built by the Romans in the first century, Ponte Pietra is the historical legacy of Verona as well as a reminder of the city's resilience. The bridge's architecture features a mix of materials and building techniques spanning the two millennia of its existence. Although the retreating German army damaged the bridge in 1945, it was restoration with original stone. As you stroll across the Adige river, take in views of the old town center.

Must visit place in Verona. Lovely old bridge with great views.

Despite being (partially) rebuilt after the WWII madness, if you have ever seen a Roman bridge, you’ll instantly recognize the type of stones, the shape and the angles of the arches. Indeed, the marble stones are the original ones from 180 BC, recovered from the underwater after being destroyed.
