About
Comacchio's city gate was built on this uniquely designed bridge.
The city of Comacchio is located on a branch of the Po river. It has been inhabited since ancient times and has always been one of the major cultural centers in the region. In 16th century, it was governed by the Papal States. During that time, an urban renovation project managed by architect Luca Danese took place in Comacchio. However, it was raided multiple times during the previous decades, which forced Comacchio to construct a new city gate that also served as a bridge in the center of Comacchio.
