Spoleto - Ponte delle Torri

Continuing past the remains of the old town walls of Spoleto above the deep ravine of the Tessino, we come to the imposing Ponte delle Torri, an aqueduct and viaduct (pedestrians only) linking the town with Monte Luco (804m/2,653ft). Built of freestone, with 10 arches (230m/250yd long, 81m/267ft high), it was constructed in the 14th century, probably on the foundations of an earlier Roman aqueduct.
