The Ponte Vecchio, the oldest and most beloved bridges in Florence, dating back Roman crosses the Arno at its narrowest point of its course, in the heart of the city. Completely destroyed by a flood in 1333, was rebuilt in its present form in 1345. E 'consists of three arches and a passage along which, winding two craft stalls, characterized by closed windows and thick wooden doors, built with their back room cantilevered over the Arno and supported by brackets (or "sports" ). In 1565, the architect Giorgio Vasari realized, over the shops to the east, on the left side, the Vasari Corridor, about one kilometer long in order to allow communication between Palazzo Vecchio, the seat of political and administrative power, with the Palazzo Pitti The private residence of the Medici family. In the workshops, initially carried out their activities butchers, fishmongers and tanners, later, to prevent malodorous effluvia from reaching the windows of the Vasari Corridor in 1593, the Grand Duke Ferdinando I ordered that the shops would become the exclusive venue of jewelers, goldsmiths and silversmiths.
