Bridge in Crasciana

This old bridge spans the stream Purioni near Crasciana, in the town of Bagni di Lucca. It is a round-arched footbridge built in the first half of the 14th century. The bridge is sited in a beautiful valley, flanked by steep hills covered in chestnut trees. It was built in sandstone by local masons. It is in a satisfactory state of preservation. Due to the partial collapse of the parapet on the north-side, it is advisable to cross the bridge cautiously.
