Ponte dei Sospiri ( Lato B ) - Bridge of Sighs ( side B )

            Questo caratteristico ponte scavalca il rio di Palazzo collegando, con un doppio passaggio, il Palazzo Ducale alle Prigioni Nuove.
Ai tempi della Serenissima, serviva da passaggio per i reclusi dalle suddette prigioni agli uffici degli Inquisitori di Stato per essere giudicati.
I prigionieri, attraversandolo, sospiravano davanti alla prospettiva di vedere per l'ultima volta il mondo esterno. 
Da questa tradizione il nome: il Ponte dei Sospiri.
E'costruito in pietra d'Istria, stile barocco, e fu realizzato agli inizi del XVII secolo su progetto dell'architetto Antonio Contin per ordine del doge Marino Grimani, il cui stemma vi è scolpito.

This characteristic bridge crosses the Rio di Palazzo connecting, with a double passage, the Palazzo Ducale to the Prigioni Nuove.
At the time of the Serenissima, it served as a passage for the inmates from the aforementioned prisons to the offices of the Inquisitors of State to be tried.
The prisoners, crossing it, sighed before the prospect of seeing the outside world for the last time.
From this tradition the name: the Bridge of Sighs.
It was built in Istrian stone, baroque style, and was built at the beginning of the 17th century on a project by the architect Antonio Contin by order of the doge Marino Grimani, whose coat of arms is carved on it.
