Facts and practical information

The Cecco Bridge is the oldest bridge in the city of Ascoli Piceno, which crosses the Castellano stream near Porta Maggiore and leads to the Malatesta fort.

Its slight architectural outline appears in a slender profile and still flaunts intact the sober harmony of proportions and lines typical of the monuments of Republican Rome. Made of travertine and stone it stands out white and clear among the rich surrounding vegetation.
