Originally, the bridge was mainly home to butchers and tanners. The butchers threw their smelly waste into the Arno, the tanners washed their fabrics, which had previously been tanned with horse urine. In 1565, however, these were replaced by goldsmiths by decree of Cosimos I de' Medici, as they did not produce waste.
