Ponte Cestio as seen from Lungotevere degli Alberteschi
The Lungotevere takes its name from the powerful House of Alberteschi, that had erected its towers in the area, between Ponte Santa Maria and Ponte Quattro Capi.
The Alberteschi Tower, the last one of the noble house, rose nearly in front of Ponte Rotto, close to the former family residence: it was demolished at the end of the 19th century, during the construction of the Lungotevere.
