Ponte Girevole

The Ponte Girevole, officially the Ponte di San Francesco di Paola, is a swing bridge across the navigable canal between Taranto's Mar Grande and Mar Piccolo, linking the old town island with the new town. The present steel bridge opened in 1958; its two halves swing aside to let ships, including naval vessels, pass through the canal.
