#Pont

🇮🇹 01/03/2025 Pavia.
Et maintenant, découverte du vieux pont couvert de Pavie, le "Ponte Coperto".
La vue est magnifique sur les deux rives du fleuve Tessin et les maisons colorées du Borgo Ticino.
Face au pont se situe la statue la lavandière, qui rend hommage aux femmes qui venaient autrefois laver le linge au bord du fleuve.

The Caetsbaanbrug (Bridge 112) is a fixed bridge, spanning the Lauriergracht and connecting the Prinsengracht’s southwest quay. Its name comes from the historic “Kaatsbaanpad”, which existed here before the canal was dug. The bridge dates back to at least 1️⃣6️⃣2️⃣5️⃣, as seen on old maps. 🗺️

In 1704, a three-arched version was built, similar to nearby bridges. The current structure, made of wrought iron and buckled plates, was constructed in 1️⃣8️⃣9️⃣3️⃣. 🌉

The white building on the left is the facade of the third oldest bar in town. It first opened in 1️⃣6️⃣2️⃣6️⃣ and it’s still there. For over 15 years, a sign behind the windows read: “Not for sale or rent.”💰🤷🏻‍♂️

And yet, dozens, maybe even hundreds of people dropped a note in the mailbox, hoping to take over the legendary Amsterdam café Brandon. In vain…🧾😥

The old proprietors, the Brandon family, lived above the establishment, and as long as they were alive, it would remain closed. 🔒

The café is located at Keizersgracht (corner of Leliegracht), on the edge of the Jordaan. 🍺 🍷
