The bridge over the Canal Grande is situated in Taverna, in the town of Gallicano. It is one of the rare medieval bridges in the Serchio Valley, consisting of a single pointed arch. The footbridge was built in sandstone and is crossed by the ancient road running from Taverna to Fiattone. Its construction was carried out by local masons in the 14th century.
