Ancient Aqueduct of Barga

Built in the course of the 15th century, the old aqueduct of Barga is a stone construction that assured water to the fountains in the historical centre. Today we can admire a spectacular series of arches forming a scenographic backdrop to the Kennedy Brothers Park, on the site occupied of the moat of the medieval village.
