Ponte Tazio

Ponte Tazio is a bridge in the Monte Sacro district that crosses the Aniene River. It connects Via Nomentana Nuova to Corso Sempione with a design built in the 1920s.

Construction took place in 1922 and connected Piazza Sempione, the center of Citta Giardino Aniene, with Via Nomentana toward Porta Pia. It was built during a period of major expansion in this neighborhood.

The name refers to the Sabine king Titus Tatius, linking this structure to Rome's ancient past. It reflects how the city honors historical figures through everyday infrastructure that residents use daily.

The bridge functions as a pedestrian and vehicle crossing linking different sections of the neighborhood. You can use it at any time of day to cross the river and move between districts.

The location appeared in Vittorio De Sica's 1948 film 'Bicycle Thieves,' becoming part of Italian cinema history. This connection to one of Italy's most celebrated films gives the bridge a role in cultural memory.
