Description
Trezzo sull'Adda Bridge is a stone arch crossing over the Adda River between two towns, featuring a single arched span as its main structure. The construction rests on two large supporting piers built into the riverbed.
History
A regional ruler commissioned this bridge's construction in the late 1300s. It held a technical record for many generations before building methods changed during the industrial era.

The bridge linked two communities and served as a symbol of Visconti power in the region. The massive stone construction visible today reflects its importance as a controlled passage across the river.
