Il Ponte dei Sospiri è un caratteristico ponte di Venezia, situato a poca distanza da Piazza San Marco in direzione di Riva degli Schiavoni, che collega il Palazzo Ducale alle antiche prigioni, i celebri Piombi.


Conosciuto in tutto il mondo, superfotografato dai turisti provenienti da ogni dove, gli è stato attribuito questo nome perché la leggenda vuole che, in tempi remoti, i prigioneri - attraversandolo - sospirassero davanti alla prospettiva di vedere per l'ultima volta il mondo esterno.
