Ponte di Mezzo
Ponte di Mezzo is the symbolic heart of Pisa, the bridge that links Piazza Garibaldi with Piazza XX Settembre and unites the city across the Arno. The current structure, completed between 1946 and 1950 after wartime destruction, is a single elegant arch of reinforced concrete faced with white Verona stone. Its position has been central since medieval times, replacing earlier crossings that once stood near Via San Martino and Santa CristinaComune di Pisa - Turismo+1. Today, the bridge offers some of the most atmospheric river views in the city, especially at sunset when the Lungarni glow with warm light. It is also the stage for the historic Gioco del Ponte, a traditional contest that transforms the bridge into a lively arena each summer. As both a practical crossing and a cultural landmark, Ponte di Mezzo remains one of Pisa’s most recognisable urban scenes.
Pisa Italy
Ponte di Mezzo spans the River Arno at the heart of Pisa’s historic centre in Tuscany, Italy, connecting Piazza Garibaldi on the north bank with Piazza XX Settembre on the south bank. This iconic white stone bridge, rebuilt after wartime destruction, forms a central crossing point between Pisa’s medieval core and lively university districts. Nearby stand Renaissance landmarks like Logge dei Banchi and Palazzo Gambacorti along the Lungarni riversides, bustling squares such as Piazza delle Vettovaglie with its market, Borgo Stretto pedestrian street lined with shops, and short walking routes to Piazza dei Cavalieri and Piazza dei Miracoli.
