Accademia Bridge updated
MapThe Accademia Bridge was first built in steel in 1854. The current wooden structure was built as a temporary replacement but a lack of consensus on what would replace it means that it is still there. There have been several fires on the bridge recently giving more urgency to the discussions.

Tip by Chris Haines on Sunday the 1 of March, 2015 at 12:13 amIncredible scenic views from this bridge. Less busy than the Rialto and you can see impressive architecture up along the canal here.
Tip by Amit Gaharwar on Saturday the 27 of May, 2017 at 5:37 pmAll the photos of boats in grande canal with Santa Maria basilica in background are probably taken from here. Vantage point for the most scenic views in Venice.
Tip by Murat on Saturday the 11 of June, 2016 at 10:40 amOne of the nicest bridges in the city between two so touristic neighbourhoods. Great spot for photo taking both direction. Nice to spend some time to watch people.
Tip by Salvatore De Carmine on Tuesday the 23 of June, 2015 at 12:19 pmA very big bridge you'll find yourself crossing many times. The view from the top is a beauty as well as the bridge itself.
Tip by Petri Aukia on Wednesday the 27 of July, 2016 at 5:04 pmMy favorite bridge in the world. Excellent view, love the temporary nature and great memories.
Tip by Kathy Liu on Tuesday the 12 of March, 2019 at 11:15 amReally beautiful view of Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute Church from here at sunset.
Tip by Svetlana Svetova on Monday the 17 of August, 2015 at 10:12 amIt's crowded like hell, but the views are really nice. Resist, soon you can get lost in small streets on either side ))
Tip by Arte Laguna Prize Arsenale Venice on Wednesday the 20 of March, 2013 at 2:46 pmHave a walk to the Arsenale: Arte Laguna Prize contemporary art exhibition on view through March 31st! | Opere finaliste del Premio Arte Laguna in mostra fino al 31 marzo!
Tip by Hamilton Fortuna Bautista on Wednesday the 30 of August, 2017 at 5:44 pmI like the view here a lot more than at the Rialto bridge. You'll see why.
Tip by Emily Heyward on Saturday the 2 of May, 2015 at 10:18 pmBeautiful wooden bridge with gorgeous views. Watch out for the selfie stick salesmen!
Tip by Oliver Shreeve on Saturday the 28 of February, 2015 at 11:39 pmBetter place for a photo than Rialto bridge, less busy path to travel to San Polo too
Tip by Agnes Zheng on Monday the 20 of May, 2019 at 7:33 amVery beautiful red structure, one of the nicest bridges in Venice.
Tip by Ben Baron on Friday the 5 of September, 2014 at 3:39 pmAmazing views of the canal, the Guggenheim, and the Basilica di Santa Maria.
Tip by Daron Yondem on Tuesday the 28 of February, 2017 at 11:24 amIf you are a photographer like me don't even try long exposure, the bridge is wooden and moves a lot. Night photography is a joke as well, none of the buildings around are lit.
Tip by Daisy on Sunday the 9 of September, 2018 at 4:41 pmWooden bridge, great view, take pictures
Tip by Ece on Tuesday the 8 of March, 2016 at 5:27 amIf you want to take some photos, this is the point😎
Tip by Michael on Monday the 9 of August, 2021 at 9:22 pmA stand out from the other bridges because of its wood construction.
Tip by Michael Smith on Saturday the 1 of September, 2012 at 6:59 pmOne of my favorite views in Venice. It never disappoints!
Tip by J on Sunday the 20 of September, 2015 at 4:52 pmGreat views, and there is a restaurant almost under the bridge.
Tip by Ann Marie on Thursday the 5 of May, 2011 at 9:04 amThere are only 3 bridges across the Grand Canal, each is unique, there are toilets under the steps. People have been putting padlocks on the bridge.
