This square used to be the political and commercial center of Piacenza. It owes its name (Piazza Cavelli) to two masterpieces by Francesko mochi, the Baroque equestrian statues** of Alexander and Ranuccio I Farnese. The gigantic structure that towers above the square is the Gotico**. To the left of the square rises the facade of the 13th century Chiesa di san Francesco, an interesting example of Gothic Franciscan architecture.

San Francesco

Highlight • Religious Site

Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi located in Piazza Cavalli. It was built in Lombard Gothic style between 1278 and 1373. The facade has two buttresses, a rose window, a spire and some spires, while the sides have flying buttresses; On the right is part of the cloisters, of which a portico remains. Inside, decorated with frescoes from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the annexation of the city to the Kingdom of Sardinia was proclaimed in 1848. The central portal of the basilica bears at the top a lunette with the relief of St. Francis stigmatized, and inside, on the right wall of the ambulatory, is a bas-relief with the rector in the chair and friars, executed in Giovanni's studio Antonio Amadeo around 1490. The basilica is the burial place of the patriot Giuseppe Manfredi, President of the Senate of the Kingdom of Italy, who died in 1918. (Wikipedia)

Po Bridge of Piacenza

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

The bridge with the Via Emilia is anything but special. The railway bridge, on the other hand, is a ponte strallato (cable bridge) that runs the ferrovia ad alta velocità Milano-Bologna over the River Po near Piacenza. This impressive bridgework is located at kilometer point 44.232 of the Milano-Bologna high-speed line.
The entire viaduct that spans the Po has a length of 1,342 meters.
The actual cable bridge section extends over 400 meters and spans the normal riverbed of the Po. The width of this section is 300 meters.
The bridge deck consists of a three-cell concrete structure that rests on pillars on the banks. The weight is carried by 72 cables connected to two antennas. The central span measures 192 meters, while the two side spans are each 104 meters long.
This bridge project was originally the largest steel and reinforced concrete railway bridge in the world and plays a crucial role in modern rail traffic between Milan and Bologna.
