The Old Bridge of Cicagna in the Fontanabuona Valley

The Ponte Vecchio of Cicagna in the Fontanabuona valley.
Crossing the village of Cicagna I stopped for a moment on the Ponte della Vittoria and from there I photographed what I believe to be the oldest part of the village, with its beautiful stone bridge.
I searched a lot online and found that the bridge is called Ponte Vecchio and crosses the Lavagna stream.
When I looked for more historical information I only found it on the Ponte Fieschi which I believe is the same structure.

Maybe someone more experienced can help me understand? Add a comment or go to the bottom of the site to read what other visitors have written.

Where is the bridge located:

The town was under the dominion of the Malaspina family until 1114, when it was incorporated into the lands of the Republic of Genoa. In an ancient document dating back to 1143 it is mentioned with the toponym of Plicania, which was then transformed into Chinaglia and then into today's Cicagna.
Always an important point in the Fontanabuona valley, the community was included in the podestà of Rapallo and subsequently in its captaincy (established in 1608), in the historic “quarter” of Oltremonte.

A Cicagna ebbi la mia prima assunzione, che lasciai per dedicarmi al settore marittimo (no, prima venni assunto da una banca, ma ci resistetti solo una sttimana). Non è un bel borgo, molto umido, e l’unica cosa da riprendere è proprio quel ponte, niente altro.
