Ponte della Paglia is a bridge in Venice, Italy. The current structure dates from 1847, and the original structure was built in 1360. The original structure was the oldest stone bridge in Venice. The name of the bridge is understood to come from boats mooring nearby to offload straw.

Ponte della Paglia is the perfect spot to take photos of the Bridge of Sighs! Ponte della Paglia is not particularly large, but is a very busy one, being in a rather central area of the city, near St Marco Square and on the Grande Canal side. I think it also has wheel chair access, at least it did when we were there last May for a few days. The views are stunning from here and the Ponte dei Sospiri gets most of them! Ahhh, sigh!!! Don't miss it, it's free!
