Hiking

All the bridges over the river in the Rezzo Valley are "Napoleonic."
The bridges in the Rezzo Valley are commonly called "Napoleonic" because local tradition and some historical sources link their construction or reconstruction to the period of Napoleon's occupation of Liguria and the opening of important new communication routes under French rule between 1805 and 1814.

Hiking

Legend has it that the bridge was built by Napoleonic troops who crossed the territory of Rezzo, burying, in the large beech forest, treasures stolen from plundered towns.
