It is a symbol of the city and one of the most famous bridges in the world. You will visit it with your official tour guide.
Ponte Vecchio is a marble and stone pedestrian bridge in Florence. It crosses the Arno River, connecting the Oltrarno section of the city to that of Santa Croce. The stone bridge was built in the 14th century, and served as a public walkway until the 18th century. It served as a military bridge during World War II. It was rebuilt in 1972-75 using material from the 16th-century balustrade, retaining much of its medieval appearance. The modern design of the new structure is by Pierluigi Spazzapan.
