Ponte della Paglia: Overall view, crossing in front of the Doge's Palace
Architecture Library, Hesburgh Libraries
The Ponte della Paglia is a small footbridge which crosses the Rio di Palazzo near the Palazzo Ducale (Doge's Palace) connecting the pier of the Piazzetta di San Marco and the Riva degli Schiavoni . It is one of the bridges that mark the transition between the district of San Marco and that of Castello. Looking inland from the bridge affords a good view of the Bridge of Sighs and the entire basin of San Marco.
