Beautiful bridge connecting Hone to Bard. Magnificent view of the fort.

Arch on the Via Francigena, just beyond the town of Donnas, also visible from the SS 26.

While traveling along the Via Francigena, on the stretch from Arnad to Bard, you cross this characteristic three-arched pedestrian bridge. On the left orogr. area with a bench for rest.

The Roman road of the Gauls, built to connect Rome with the Rhone Valley, has in the Donnas section one of its most characteristic and spectacular points, carved out of the living rock over a length of 221 metres. In a place where in ancient times the rocky promontory plunged into the waters of the Dora, the Romans launched a real challenge to nature by carving out a living rock on which they could draw perfectly vertical walls and in whose bosom they cut the roadbed. Exciting and unusual, here the Via delle Gallie gives its best by offering the spectacle of a vaulted passage 4 metres thick, 4 metres high and almost 3 metres wide that eloquently illustrates the amount of rock removed and shows all the refinement of a road engineering never again achieved until viaducts and modern tunnels. In the Middle Ages it served as a gate to the village, which was closed at night; The other defences were of course: on one side the mountain and on the other the river. A fundamental road, much used over the centuries, as evidenced by the deep ruts left by the passage of carts and the wear of the walking surface that has been patched and repaired at various points over time. A little further on, on the right, we recognise the excellent profile of a milestone, also spared in the rocky bank, which informs us of the distance to Augusta Praetoria (the current city of Aosta): XXXVI miles (about 54 km).

The origin of this bridge is uncertain, but it was probably built in Roman times. The first documents mentioning this bridge date from the second half of the 13th century. From 1272 onwards, the bridge was called Hôhne Bridge or Bard Bridge in Latin and then in Old French. Apart from its history, the bridge is a beautiful photo point of Fort Bard.

In addition to many temporary exhibitions, often aimed at promoting and learning about the culture and territory of the Aosta Valley and the Alps, the Forte di Bard includes three permanent museums. 1.) On the top floor is the Museum of the Alps. Here the secrets of the mountain have been presented through a multimedia path and interactive installations. A truly worthwhile and informative museum!!! 2.) A second museum room is dedicated to the prisons of the fort, twenty-four narrow cells (1.3 x 2 meters) distributed in four areas and accessed from a gallery decorated with historical prints and paintings that tell the story of the building. 3.) Finally, the Fortress and Border Museum of the Opera Ferdinando offers a journey through the history of the Bard through a parade of historical and plastic weapons, including scale models of defensive structures and miniature armies.

The Roman road of the Gauls, built to connect Rome with the Rhone Valley, has a remarkable and spectacular point in the Donnas section. The Romans carved out a living rock over a length of 221 meters, on which they could build perfectly vertical walls and in which they created the roadbed. The Via delle Gallie reveals a vaulted passage 4 meters thick, 4 meters high and almost 3 meters wide, illustrating the impressive amount of rock removed. This advanced road technology was unparalleled until modern viaducts and tunnels. In the Middle Ages this functioned as the village gate, which was closed at night. The other natural defenses were the mountain on one side and the river on the other. This basic road has been used extensively over the centuries, as evidenced by the deep ruts left by passing carts and the wear and tear of the walking surface, which has been repaired at various points over time. Further on, on the right, we see a milestone that informs us of the distance to Augusta Praetoria (modern Aosta): XXXVI miles (about 54 km)

The Fort de Bard, which has remained almost unchanged since its reconstruction, represents one of the best examples of a dam fortress from the beginning of the 19th century. The stronghold has three main buildings, on several levels, between 400 and 467 meters high: from the lowest, the Ouvrage Ferdinand, to the middle one, the Ouvrage Victor and, at the top, the Ouvrage Charles-Albert, a whole of 283 rooms. The Ouvrage Ferdinand is shaped like pincers and has two buildings, the Ouvrage Ferdinand Inférieur and the Ouvrage Ferdinand Supérieur. The Ouvrage Mortai, placed behind the latter and the adjoining Powder Magazine house the rooms intended for the didactic laboratories. About halfway up the rock, stands the Ouvrage Victor where you will find "Les Alpes des Enfants", an interactive trail. At the top, the most imposing of the three structures has an enclosure on which all the buildings rest and which contains the Ouvrage de Gola, its courtyard, which can defend the south side, and the Ouvrage Charles-Albert and its large quadrangular courtyard of the Place d'Armes, surrounded by large arcades. The first floor of the Ouvrage Charles-Albert is dedicated to the "Musée des Alpes". Inside the structure, there is also a tour of the history of the Fort, in the Prison rooms. The Fort is accessible by an external road, on the south side, which leads to the courtyard of the Ouvrage de Gola, and by an internal road which winds in narrow steep bends, protected by large stone walls and which goes up the opposite slope towards the North, thus allowing one to reach the Ouvrage Charles-Albert. These two roads are only accessible on foot. The summit of the rock and the fortress is easily accessible thanks to the panoramic lifts which, from the village of Bard to the foot of the Fort, provide access to the Ouvrage Charles-Albert and therefore to the Museum of the Alps. https://www.viefrancigene.org/fr/resource/poi/forte-di-bard/
