The Ponte degli Scalzi is a stone arch bridge. Designed by Eugenio Miozzi, it was completed in 1934, replacing an Austrian iron bridge.

The Ponte degli Scalzi, literally, "bridge of the barefoot [monks]", is one of only four bridges in Venice, Italy, to span the Grand Canal.

On the north side, (Cannaregio side), are the Chiesa degli Scalzi (Church of the Barefoot or Discalced Monks) and the Santa Lucia railway station (Ferrovia). The south side is the sestiere of Santa Croce where is located the Church of San Simeon Piccolo, a few steps from the bridge.
