    The Devil's Bridge of Dronero, built in 1428 over the Maira torrent, is a remarkable example of medieval civil engineering. This bridge has three arches of different sizes and is slightly curved, with lateral parapets surmounted by swallow-tailed Ghibelline battlements.

    Originally, on the pillar of the smaller arch towards the centre of Dronero, there was a drawbridge, whose iron hinge was found under the road surface; this was removed in 1810 when the entrance passage was widened and the Ghibelline battlements were restored.

    The medieval bridge of Dronero, built in 1428, has three spans of arches with different light and is not straight but slightly curved. It is said that it was erected by the Devil following a pact with some citizens.

    The name is linked, like many other medieval bridges, to the figure of the Devil of whom a legend is handed down. In fact, it is said that after several unsuccessful attempts, the inhabitants of Dronero asked the Devil for help to build a bridge capable of resisting the force of the river Maira.
