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.

crossing the bridge over the river Adda you enter the ancient part of the town of Pizzighettone and the tower is immediately visible and imposing, a very suggestive glimpse
