The work 🚧 is finished, and now the bridge is passable again. The previous stretch is often muddy 💩 after the rains.

Vercelli is a lovely city center of modest size but with a unique charm: worth seeing are the central Piazza Cavour, the porticoes, the Basilica of Sant’Andrea with the 10th century “Vercelli Book”, the metropolitan cathedral of Sant’Eusebio and the “Arca” exhibition center near the church of San Marco.

The cathedral of Sant’Eusebio, patron saint of Vercelli and Piedmont, boasts ancient origins, but its current appearance is the result of numerous restorations. In Roman times, there was a necropolis here where San Teonesto, the first Christian martyr of Vercelli, a victim of Diocletian's persecutions, was buried. Next to him, Sant’Eusebio was laid to rest in his honor. Tradition has it that the basilica was founded by Emperor Theodosius I, but the barbarian invasions caused serious damage, requiring subsequent reconstruction work. Thanks to its position on the Via Francigena, the cathedral has become a fundamental stop for pilgrims over the centuries, a testimony made evident by the precious relics preserved inside, including those of Thomas Beckett.

Between Greggio and San Nazzaro Sesia, the Cavour canal is about to enter the siphon that makes it pass under the Sesia river. Thanks to this little bridge-lock between the fields, it can be crossed with ease.
