Ponte Minich
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ponte Minich is a bridge which lies in the Sestiere Castello in Venice and connects the Calle Trevisan with the Calle Bressana. To have the bridge named for him, the surgeon Angelo Minich (1817-1893) bequeathed the city of Venice thirty thousand lire in his will of 25 September 1893, for the comfort and education of the city and for on-time departure performance of the Venezianer electrical clocks. The clocks are still present today. They have a white face with Roman numerals, and the housings are made of cast iron.
