See Pont Génois, Corsica
Ruines of the genoan bridge over the Golo river (Northern Corsica) known as Ponte Nuovo (co:Ponte Novu), which gave its name to the battle won by the Louis XV of France Army marking the end of the Independence of the Corsican State led by Pasquale Paoli on May, 9th, 1769. The Bridge was almost destroyed by the German Army retreating towards Bastia in September 1943 in order to slow-down the advance of the Italian troops - supported by the local Resistance and some French Colonial troops - against them.
