The bridges of Florence: history, culture and tradition

By: Marica Musumarra

The Arno and its bridges are among the most characteristic images of Florence. One of the most famous images of a city famous all over the world for its architecture and culture.

The very special relationship that binds the city of Florence with the bridges it houses has ancient and deep roots: the first bridge, in fact, was built around the middle of the first century BC, immediately after its foundation, and made it possible to create a link between the two banks of the Arno. It is thanks to the presence of numerous bridges that Florence breathes an air of harmony and continuity.
