Pons Neronianus, Roman bridge near Vatican district, Rome, Italy
The Pons Neronianus stretches across the Tiber River, connecting the Campus Martius with the Ager Vaticanus through a series of stone arches.
The bridge was constructed during the first century AD, enabling Roman emperors to access the Gardens of Agrippina and the Circus on the eastern riverbank.
Medieval texts refer to this structure as Pons ruptus, documenting its gradual transformation from a functional crossing to an archaeological remnant.
During low water levels in the Tiber River, visitors can observe one of the original bridge piers below the modern Ponte Vittorio Emanuele II.
The bridge served as a crucial path for emperors celebrating their Triumphs, who crossed it along the Via Triumphalis when entering Rome.
