Ponte Umberto I, Stone arch bridge over Po River in Turin, Italy
The bridge spans 124 meters across the Po River with three distinct arches measuring 30, 32, and 30 meters in length and a width of 23 meters.
Built between 1903 and 1907, this bridge replaced an iron suspension bridge from 1840 that had become unsafe for vehicle traffic by 1879.
The entrances feature four sculptural compositions by Luigi Contratti and Cesare Reduzzi, representing themes of Valor, Piety, Art, and Industry.
The structure connects Corso Vittorio Emanuele II in central Turin to Corso Fiume in Borgo Crimea, with public transport stops located near the western bank.
Following King Umberto I's death in 1900, the bridge received its name to honor the monarch's efforts in disease control and disaster prevention.
