Coenzo Tower

Highlight • Monument

It was built in 1284 together with another twin tower (now disappeared) on the right bank of the Enza river to control the passage of boats on the nearby waterway. Contested between the municipality of Parma and the Da Correggio family, it was dismantled in 1329 and later rebuilt in 1334. Excluding the remains of the ancient parish church of the capital, it is the oldest building in the municipality of Sorbolo.

Chiesa di Coenzo

Highlight • Religious Site

It is first mentioned in 1140 and then in other documents in the following centuries as dependent on the Parish of Sorbolo. In a document from 1493, the church appears instead as dependent on the Abbess of Sant'Alessandro di Parma. By the 18th century, the old church was in a state of disrepair, and construction of the new building began (1793). The apse of the medieval church still stands in the current sacristy.

Bocca d'Enza Pumping Station

Highlight • Structure

The building housing the pumping station was built between 1908 and 1917 and subsequently upgraded in 2007. The plant is located on the Parmetta canal, and since 1910 it has guaranteed the drainage of rainwater even from the lower-lying lands of the Mezzano and Colorno hinterlands.

Parma Morta Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural Monument

the Natural Oasis of Parma Morta which takes its name from the now disappeared waters of the stream that flowed into the Enza. The Natural Oasis was established as a nature reserve in 1990 and represents a refuge for numerous animal species that cannot inhabit the surrounding cultivated land. We talked about it here: outdoortest.it/le-5-ciclovie-italiane-piu-belle
