The Vizzano bridge has connected the two banks of the Reno since Roman times. The suspension bridge is in fact the latest in a series of constructions that connected Rome and Florence to Bologna. The bridge was destroyed several times due to river floods. After the Second World War it was rebuilt and is now easily accessible from the cycle path.

The suspension bridge that currently exists is the latest in a series of constructions that are assumed to date back to Roman times: it is in fact assumed that the road that connected Rome and Florence to Bologna passed through here. Since then, historical vicissitudes, floods and wars have repeatedly destroyed the connection between the two banks of the Rhine. The bridge, rebuilt starting in 1949, is located on the paths of the Via degli Dei and the Via della Lana e della Seta.
