    More than 85 kilometers long, the Villoresi canal is among the most important artificial waterways in Italy. It owes its name to the engineer Eugenio Villoresi, who began designing it in 1862. Here you are just downstream from the Panperduto dam, immediately after the diversion locks, between the Villoresi canal and the Industriale canal (or Vizzola canal), whose main branch will flow into the Naviglio Grande.
