Ponte Sant'Angelo, once the Aelian Bridge or Pons Aelius, meaning the Bridge of Hadrian, is a Roman bridge in Rome, central Italy, completed in 134 AD by Roman Emperor Hadrian, to span the Tiber, from the city center to his newly constructed mausoleum, now the towering Castel Sant'Angelo.

houses at the head of the bridge as well as a Roman triumphal arch were pulled down in order to widen the route for pilgrims. During 16th century, the bridge was used to display the bodies of executed citizens to the public as a sign and warning.
