Ponte Navi

The Ponte Navi spans 90 meters across the Adige River, connecting the Veronetta district with the historical center of Verona through its concrete structure.

The bridge holds historical significance as the location of a 14th-century battle between Cangrande II della Scala and his half-brother Fregnano, resulting in Fregnano's death.

The bridge design incorporates terracotta brick cladding that harmonizes with the Gothic architecture of the nearby Church of San Fermo, creating architectural continuity.

Ponte Navi serves as a primary connection point between different sections of Verona, accommodating both vehicle and pedestrian traffic across the Adige River.

After destruction in 1945 during World War II, the bridge underwent reconstruction between 1947 and 1949 through a public design competition.
