Ponte Tron, Stone arch bridge near San Marco, Venice, Italy
The Ponte Tron spans the Rio Orseolo canal with an Istrian stone construction featuring traditional Venetian architectural elements and decorative balustrades.
Built in 1840, the bridge received its name from the influential Tron family who resided in the area before the development of the Orseolo Basin.
The bridge displays a carved lion head of Saint Mark on its central cartouche, representing the historical symbol of the Venetian Republic.
Located near the Bacino Orseolo gondola station, the bridge connects pedestrian routes between San Marco district and the shopping area of Calle Larga de l'Ascension.
The small dimensions of the bridge led Venetians to name it 'la piavola', meaning doll's bridge in the local dialect.
