The Bridge of Gran Arvou (Italian: ''Ponte acquedotto di Grand Arvou'', French: ''Pont aqueduc du Grand Arvou'') is an aqueduct-bridge in the ''frazione'' Porossan of Aosta, north-western Italy. It span the Rû Prévôt irrigation canal, and includes a large corridor covered by flagstones. Another aqueduct-bridge, the Petit Arvou, is located a few meters downstream. ==History== In the late 13th-early 14th century, there was a series of programs aiming to improve the irrigation level in Aosta Valley, due to increased demand of animal husbandry. One of this was the construction of canal, the Rû Prévôt, by will of Henry of Quart, provost (hence the name) of the Aosta Cathedral. This included also the couple of bridge-aqueducts which are now visible. The income of the canal exploitation was later acquired by the Dukes (later Kings) of Savoy. In the 20th century, the canal was mostly (11,9 km out of 12) channeled into pipes.
