Tips from the Community
The Oratory of Saints Vito, Modesto, and Crescenzia, also known as the Madonna di San Vito, is a small sacred building located in the San Vito district. Although dating back to the 16th century, it was completely renovated in the late 1940s, losing its frescoed vault and original altar. Today, it features a single nave and houses valuable objects such as a 16th-century chalice. The small church is open to the public during Marian liturgical services organized by the Casaloldo parish.

The Parish Church of Casaloldo, dedicated to the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Emiliano, was built by Ticino architect Giovanni Maria Borsotto, who designed it between 1714 and 1720. The church's architecture is majestic and luminous, with sober lines softened by Baroque touches. The interior has a single nave, punctuated by Corinthian pilasters that delineate ten side chapels, culminating in the presbytery with the high altar and semicircular apse. Borsotto also designed the parish church's imposing bell tower, which was built about twenty years after the church itself and is a prominent feature of the city's skyline.

The fortress can be visited, with a ticket. All in all it is worth it for the view all around the battlefield. If you know a little history it is a great place to read about what happens here.
