Pont Génois de Pianella ou Ponte Vechju
The construction of this bridge, called Ponte Vechju or Pianella Bridge, was decided in 1715 by the communities of Evisa and Ota, who were its builders.
There is only a single arch, and on one side of the bridge a niche housed the statue (now vanished) of a saint who protected the men and flocks that took this path. It was listed as a historic monument on 29 November 1976.
It is a much-appreciated swimming spot.
