L'archivolto del ponte Grecino a Varese Ligure

L’archivolto del ponte Grecino a Varese Ligure.
Il ponte Grecino, sopra il torrente Crovara, era uno dei punti per entrare nel borgo al tempo del Medioevo.
Per questo immagino ci fosse questo archivolto, magari con un portone, per gestire l’ingresso alla cittadina.

Borgo Rotondo in the historic center of Varese. Commissioned by the Fieschi family for the control and defense of the Varese territory, it is made up of identical stone houses arranged along the perimeter which, with an elliptical shape, enclose the two main squares (Piazza Fieschi and Piazza Castello), where the commercial activities, warehouses and laboratories were located in the underlying porticoes.

One of the symbols of the Borgo Rotondo (this is the name given to the beautiful Varese Ligure, famous for its circular-shaped historic center) is certainly the old bridge that connects the actual village to the Grecino neighborhood, separated by the Crovana stream that shortly after flows into the Vara.

A spasso per il piccolo borgo di Varese Ligure che è sì famoso per la piazza rotonda (da cui il soprannome di Borgo Rotondo) ma ha anche un altro paio di punti interessanti.
Come il ponte Grecino che in questo scatto è fotografato dalla zona chiamata appunto quartiere Grecino.

The ancient bridge over the Crovana torrent in Varese Ligure.
The Grecino bridge, which since the 16th century has made it possible to cross the Crovana torrent (a tributary of the Vara) to connect the very small neighborhood called Grecino (Grexino) with the city center.

The houses of the village of Varese overlooking the Vara River. In this beautiful town, in addition to the famous Piazza Fieschi, the round square that also gives the village its nickname, there is also the beautiful and ancient Grecino bridge.
From above the bridge you can see what is normally the back of the houses in the alley of Varese.

Il ponte Grecino a Varese Ligure.
A Varese Ligure sono due i simboli più famosi: uno è ovviamente la piazza rotonda (da cui deriva il soprannome della cittadina del Borgo Rotondo); l’altro è sicuramente il ponte Grecino (o Grexino).
Questo ponte del 1500 è veramente impressionante così come il piccolo rione che serve a raggiungere detto anche Grecino.
