Constantine's Bridge was a late antique bridge in Mysia, modern-day Turkey. The structure, built some time after 258 AD, crossed the river Rhyndacus (modern Adırnas Çayı) at Lopadium (modern Uluabat). It was crowned in Byzantine times by a chapel dedicated by Saint Helena to emperor Constantine I (r. 324–337 AD). Only few remains have survived: at the beginning of the 20th century, the English archaeologist Frederick William Hasluck reported no arch as complete, and only a few ruined piers on the north bank. The masonry consisted of ashlar-faced rubble.

  • Die Konstantinbrücke war eine spätantike Brücke in Mysien in der heutigen Türkei. Die nach dem Jahr 258 n. Chr. errichtete Konstruktion überquerte den Fluss Rhyndakos, den heutigen Adırnaz Çayı, bei (Lopadium). Der Brückenname rührt aus der byzantinischen Zeit, als eine von St. Helena dem Kaiser Konstantin dem Großen geweihte Kapelle das Bauwerk krönte. Bei einem Ortsbesuch Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts fand der englische Archäologe Frederick William Hasluck nur noch wenige Überreste vor. Kein Bogen war intakt geblieben, und nur noch einige zerstörte Pfeiler türmten sich an der rechten Uferseite auf. Das Mauerwerk bestand aus Steinquadern mit Bruchsteinfüllung. (de)

  • Il Ponte di Costantino era un ponte tardoantico in Misia, nell'odierna Turchia. La struttura, costruita qualche tempo dopo il 258 d.C., attraversava il fiume Rindaco (l'odierno ) a Lopadium (l'odierna ). Fu coronato in epoca bizantina da una cappella dedicata da Sant'Elena all'imperatore Costantino I (ca. 324-337 d.C.). Vi sono solo pochi resti: all'inizio del XX secolo, l'archeologo inglese non riportò alcun arco come completo, e solo alcuni pontili in rovina sulla sponda nord. La muratura consisteva in pietrisco a bugnato. (it)

  • Il Ponte di Costantino era un ponte tardoantico in Misia, nell'odierna Turchia. La struttura, costruita qualche tempo dopo il 258 d.C., attraversava il fiume Rindaco (l'odierno ) a Lopadium (l'odierna ). Fu coronato in epoca bizantina da una cappella dedicata da Sant'Elena all'imperatore Costantino I (ca. 324-337 d.C.). Vi sono solo pochi resti: all'inizio del XX secolo, l'archeologo inglese non riportò alcun arco come completo, e solo alcuni pontili in rovina sulla sponda nord. La muratura consisteva in pietrisco a bugnato. Oltre al Ponte di Costantino, altri ponti romani straordinariamente ben conservati sono sopravvissuti in Misia, conosciuti con il nome dei fiumi che attraversano, come il ponte sul Macesto, il Ponte sull'Esepo e il Ponte Bianco sul Granico.
