Pizzighettone Walls

Highlight • Historical Site

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.

Torre del Guado

Highlight • Castle

Torre del Guado is what remains of an old castle located right on the Adda river, built by the Cremonese to defend the border towards Lodi. It is famous because in 1525 the king of France, Francis I, was imprisoned there for 50 days after the battle lost in Pavia against the Spanish.

Church of San Pietro in Pizzighettone

Highlight • Religious Site

A truly unusual aspect, that of the Church of San Pietro in Pizzighettone, whose facade is the work of numerous renovations over time. Starting from the second half of the twentieth century it was entirely covered with precious marbles and rich gilded and polychrome mosaics. The church can be used with guided tours on Sundays and holidays.

Pizzighettone, one of the best preserved walled cities, thanks also to the passion of the Volontari delle Mura Group. Medieval village on the Adda but also bordered by the Dead Serio. Worth visiting are the "casemates" and the old prison

Collegiata di San Bassiano, Pizzighettone

Highlight • Religious Site

The ancient collegiate church of San Bassiano, from the 12th century, inside which the grandiose Crucifixion by Bernardino Campi dominates, preserves inside three 14th-century marble high reliefs, some frescoes and a rib. According to tradition, the latter belonged to the ferocious dragon Tarantasio.

Beautiful town, a particular village as it is characterized by about two kilometers of ancient walls that are still intact. It is really worth visiting its streets calmly.

Church of San Bassiano

Highlight • Religious Site

The Church of San Bassiano was built in the 12th century by refugees from Lodi, who fled the destruction of Barbarossa, and named after the first bishop of their city of origin. It is an example of Romanesque architecture and also one of the oldest buildings in the Cremona area
