What you'll see
A covered passage carried over a deep ravine on tall stacked stone arches, joining the castle to its gardens and theatre; walk across it and look down over the old town.
A brief history
The tall arched bridge took its present form in the 18th century; the covered corridors along its top let the castle's owners walk to the theatre without going outside.
