Pont de Pierre

Pont de Pierre
Aosta, Italy (IT)
The Pont de Pierre (Italian: Ponte di pietra), meaning "Stone Bridge", is a Roman segmental arch bridge in the Italian city of Aosta in the Aosta Valley. The bridge crossed the Buthier about 600 m from the eastern exit of the Roman colony Augusta Praetoria; in later times the torrente changed its course, leaving the ancient bridge today without water.
