ヴェッルーアポーの洞窟・トップ6

The view of the village is simply spectacular.

Great place to take fabulous photos if you find the right day.

A dignified, impressive building in a wonderful park. A must-see.

This imposing brick castle was built between 1360 and 1365 by order of Galeazzo Visconti and served as a fortification and residence. The north wing of the castle was destroyed at the battle of Pavia (1525) between the French and the Spanish. Petrarch loved the building and assembled a rich library there, which later moved to France. The large courtyard has arcades and an ornate loggia with twin windows.

Very beautiful and impressive castle!

Cicognola offers a splendid castle and an equally interesting panoramic point on the hills of the Oltrepò Pavese. Stop in this small town for a break and to admire its beauties.

The Visconti castle was finished in just five years in 1365 under the impetus of Galeazzo II Visconti. The elegant architectural solutions, such as the double and triple lancet windows on the façade, reveal the vocation of this building conceived from the beginning as a residence rather than a fortress. Purchased by the municipality in the first half of the twentieth century, the castle now hosts some sections of the Civic Museums and other cultural events.

Panoramic point on the first hill with a breathtaking view over the whole Po valley and view up to the skyline of Milan (from sunset to evening)
