It is perhaps the best known and most frequented of the bridges in Monza Park and takes its name from the iron chains that connect the solid parapets together.
Featuring a rectangular base and a length of 15 meters, it is developed in two bays on lowered arches with masonry abutments on two inclined planes converging in the middle.
In the center, it is possible to notice a buffered decoration in the shape of an oculus, also made of brick.
The "Chain Bridge" located along the Valle dei Sospiri avenue, was built in neoclassical and eclectic style in 1820 following the design of architect Luigi Canonica.
The Bridge owes part of its notoriety to its privileged location in the center of the perspective avenue set on the Royal Villa but not only.
If we ideally bypassed the Reggia, the "perspective telescope" would continue on Viale Cesare Battisti thus linking in an articulated and complex landscape design the Villa, the Historic Center of the City, Piazzale Virgilio and the countryside between Monza and Villasanta.
