Ponte della Vittoria

Ponte della Vittoria is an arch bridge spanning 111 meters across the Adige River with three stone arches of varying sizes constructed with reinforced concrete. The structure connects Verona's historic center to the residential districts of Borgo Trento and Valdonega.

The bridge was constructed between 1926 and 1929, then destroyed by German forces in 1945 during World War II. Complete reconstruction efforts lasted until 1953.

The structure displays commemorative marble plaques with army bulletins and bronze equestrian statues at both ends, marking military victory. These monuments shape how visitors experience the bridge today and anchor its role as a symbol of the city's past.

The bridge functions as a main crossing between the old city and eastern residential areas, accommodating both foot traffic and vehicles daily. A walk across it offers views of the Adige and surrounding urban landscape.

Workers discovered remains of an ancient Jupiter temple during construction, now displayed in gardens near Porta Vittoria gate. This archaeological find links the city's Roman past directly with the modern structure.
