Ponte degli Scalzi

The ‘Station Bridge’

The Ponte degli Scalzi was built between 1932 and 1934. It was a project carried out by the engineer Eugenio Miozzi and the bridge is made entirely of Istrian stone.

It is considered one of the most important bridges in Venice as it is one of the only four bridges in the city that cross the Grand Canal, together with the Ponte della Costituzione, the Ponte di Rialto and the Ponte dell’Accademia.

The Ponte degli Scalzi is also known as the Ponte della Stazione (Station Bridge) or Ponte della Ferrovia (Railway Bridge), due to its proximity to the Venezia Santa Lucia Station.

The Ponte degli Scalzi is also close to several tourist attractions, such as Palazzo Foscari Contarini, the Church of Santa Maria di Nazareth, the Giardini Savorgnan and the Giardini Papadopoli.
