    Tips

    The bridge over the Rabbi and the Via Del Partigiano are recent constructions, but the crossing of the river in that part of the Forlì territory is already described in ancient documents...
    ... There is talk of a bridge in Vecchiazzano in the Libro Biscia di San Mercuriale in a document from 1196.
    If nature was benevolent, it is the same structure that the chronicler Giovanni di Mastro Pedrino will describe as having been overwhelmed by a flood of the Rabbi in 1433.
    Antonio Ordelaffi had it built in wood in 1445 with the help of a certain Mastro Giacomo da Ferrara, but only 36 years later the “Elders” of Forlì had it rebuilt by Ludovico di Andrea da Lugo and Lorenzo Antonio known as “Malabestia”.
    In 1842 a great flood caused enormous damage to the wooden structure and in 1860 the beautiful brick structure that we still see today was built.....
    ..... The bridge was the only one among those in Forlì to be saved, despite extensive damage, from the Allied bombings first and then from the German devastation, in the terrible moments of the Liberation that in Forlì is dated November 9, 1944.
    During the restoration carried out by the Municipality starting in 2005, unexploded mines that the Nazis had placed for its destruction were found under one span.
    The mines remained on that site for over 60 years.
    Today the beautiful nineteenth-century structure, which can only be crossed on foot or on two wheels, is the symbol of the pedestrian path of the embankment on the river.....
