Il Casseretto: what to see nearby
The bridge of Porta Solestà is one of the best-preserved Roman bridges: it was commissioned by the emperor Augustus to join the two banks of the Tronto and, more broadly, the territories of Ascoli and Fermo. The roadway is 62 m long and 6.50 m wide, enough for two carts to pass each other. It is built entirely of travertine blocks laid in squared courses, dry-set without mortar, and the main arch has a span of more than 22 m.
Between 1929 and 1938 the bridge was strengthened in two phases: the fill material was removed and a reinforced-concrete walkway was built inside it, which supports the structure and absorbs the vibrations of traffic. The bridge has never stopped being used: it has been crossed in every era, from Roman times through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance to the present day.
