Rebuilt red brick bridge, has some crenellations, as well as a steeper than anticipated slope. It appears to be part of the castelvecchio, but has free access.

A great place to visit and see the views from it are fantastic. A walkover takes you to a small park area lovely. The museum on the city side is spectacular.
What's good the bridge is so central 5 minutes walk from Piazza Bra. Also Restaurants and bars are very close. The bridge is a great place to chill and the river and city views are a must-visit.

Just loved this Bridge, very good to see from a distance and unlike many bridges once you get closer loses it appeal, this Ponte is the opposite.
Once you get to bridge and start to walk along it you pass a wonderful gate and upon entering bridge you get wonderful views looking at both sides of the city and the castle.
Half way on bridge you can walk up the stairs for even better views, steps can be steep so be careful walking up.
Once you cross the bridge you can then walk down the bank and explore under the bridge really cool Ponte to visit.

This bridge crosses the river and gives great views of the castle, town and river. You can climb up the steep steps to the walkway below the castellated areas to get an even better view

Yet another breathtaking sight in a city that is a veritable treasure trove of architectural delights. Its brick construction is in contrast to much of Verona. However, it is no less beautiful.

Very interesting bridge that we saw at night when it was all lit up. You can climb up some very small steps to get a better view from the bridge - bit scary climbing back down them with nothing to hold on to but it was worth it.

Impressive castle bridge . We approached it from the other side of the river Adige so the view that opened was fantastic.

Beautiful bridge, very well preserved. It has stairs, that allow you to climb up even higher on the bridge. Great spot for pictures. It connects to the museum / castle.
