This stretch of the Adda cycle path allows you to pedal peacefully along dirt banks and grassy stretches, in the quiet of the Cremona countryside. Here, you can slow down and enjoy the gentle rhythm of the river, far from traffic.

Pizzighettone boasts one of the best-preserved city walls in Lombardy. Built in the Middle Ages and then reinforced during the Spanish era, they still surround a large portion of the historic center along the banks of the Adda River. The casemates and internal walkways allow you to imagine military life in the past, when the village was a strategic garrison between Milan and Cremona. Strolling around the walls, you can admire towers, bastions, and perfectly restored sections.

The Cappella della Motta is a historic building in the municipality of Ripalta Arpina (CR), on the road connecting it to Madignano, through the Corfù farmhouse. Restored in 1945, it houses the remains of those who fell in the battle fought on June 5, 1139, between the victorious municipalities of Crema and Milan against Cremona. It is a symbol for the people of Crema, commemorating the battle that followed the siege and sack of Crema by the Cremonese.

Strolling through the village's alleys, you'll discover secret corners, hidden frescoes, and a medieval atmosphere that will make you feel like you're in a fairytale. Perfect for those seeking an adventure between history and nature!

The hydraulic junction of the Tombe Morte-Tredici Ponti constitutes the most important concentration of artificial waterways in the province of Cremona, irrigating approximately 85,000 hectares of countryside. Here the Naviglio Civico di Cremona, the Naviglio Grande Pallavicino and the Canale Vacchelli intersect, the latter pouring almost all of its flow into the Naviglio Pallavicino, the Naviglio Civico and a dozen irrigation ditches through an impressive system of locks. Finally, a spillway, built between 1968 and 1981, detaches from the junction, which discharges any excess flow from the Naviglio Civico, the Naviglio Pallavicino and the Vacchelli into the Oglio river. Two different hypotheses have been made regarding the origin of the name, the first would originate from the term tomba which is synonymous with siphon, a hydraulic element that connects two conduits. Probably some of these artifacts would have fallen into disuse, hence the adjective death. Another hypothesis is linked to the discovery of several dozen burials dating back to the late Roman era.
