Ponte sul Tesina, Stone bridge in Torri di Quartesolo, Italy.

Ponte sul Tesina is a stone bridge at Torri di Quartesolo carrying the road over the Tesina river on three arches, fewer than the five of its model, the Ponte di Tiberio in Rimini. Pairs of tabernacles, small shrine-like structures, stand against the piers. It is the only masonry bridge designed by Andrea Palladio that still exists.

The design came from Andrea Palladio in 1569, with work carried out between 1580 and the end of the 16th century under Domenico Groppino's direction. This approach combined Renaissance ideals with the building techniques available at the time.

Palladio modelled the bridge on Rimini's Ponte di Tiberio, which he admired, reducing it to three arches and adding a pair of tabernacles against the piers. The stone bridge is still the town's crossing point over the Tesina, and the tabernacles are the detail to look for.

The bridge carries the road through the centre of Torri di Quartesolo, just a short walk from the town's built-up area, so it is easy to reach on foot. It was restored in 2010, and later repairs have at times been heavy enough to alter the structure, so expect possible work on the masonry.

It remains the only surviving masonry work designed by Palladio, making it a rare example of his bridge-building approach. A restoration in 2010 preserved the structure and brought back its original features.
