The Covered Bridge (also called Ponte Vecchio) is located on the Ticino river in Pavia and connects the historic city center to the rest of the city (located on the left bank of the Ticino). The bridge is very characteristic, it has five arches and is completely covered with two portals at the ends and a small religious chapel in the center. Although the current bridge was built in 1949, it recreates the shape of the ancient Covered Bridge, dating back to the 14th century.

The covered bridge has its origins in Roman times. The current one was constructed in the 14th century and covered in 1583. Upstream of the bridge you can still see pillars of the original bridge, reconstructed after the Second World War. A memorial stone on the bridge tells that Albert Einstein stayed in Pavia for several months and loved the place.
