Looking at the grandeur of the arch that held up the bridge, one is left speechless. This engineering work was commissioned by Augustus in 27 BC. to make the old Flaminia consular road easily passable. Today the blocks remain lying along the Nera river to create a fairytale landscape.

The bridge of Augustus is a Roman bridge located near Narni Scalo and used in ancient times to cross the gorge created by the Nera river. Cited in classical sources, depicted by artists and travelers, a true masterpiece of Roman architecture, it is to be placed in relation to the major renovations commissioned by Augustus in 27 BC, along the route of the Flaminian consular road. Of the imposing original structure remain two arched pylons on the shore of Mount Corviano, an opposing section on the shore of Mount Santa Croce and the ruins of two pylons of the central arch, which collapsed before 1055.
