Ponte Rotto

È storia, reale

The broken bridge is the only remnant of the first stone bridge built on the Tiber River. It was situated next to the fully functional Paratino Bridge and collapsed in 1598. Today, this incomplete white giant is sadly placed under moss and grass, leaving modern Romans to rush past it. Perhaps visitors with a special interest in Roman architecture will find it worth a visit.

Stando lungo il ponte, il fiume pulito, il castello sul bordo, l'atmosfera intorno è fantastica, e si integra come tornare a Roma nel giorno del passato, lode

Relics bear the weight of history. What a huge project was this bridge in those days?

I went there in mid-November and stood by the bridge, looking out at the clear river and the castle on the side. The atmosphere around me was so wonderful that it was like going back to Rome, Zan.
