広域公園スティローネとピアセンジアンのおすすめツーリングルート

Castell'Arquato is located on the first hill of Piacenza and serves as the gateway to the Arda Valley. The village was founded around the 7th century AD; the first written records date back to that period. During the Middle Ages, the village was often the scene of clashes between Guelphs and Ghibellines and the center of disputes between the Scotti and Visconti families. In the modern era, it passed from the Visconti to the Sforza family, whose rule lasted until the 18th century, when the village became part of the Duchy of Parma and Piacenza. The village has retained a typically medieval appearance with many places of great interest.

The Pallavicino Marquises' Scipione Castle dominates the hills between Parma and Salsomaggiore Terme and is one of the oldest fortresses in Emilia-Romagna, built before the 11th century to control the salt routes. Inhabited by the same family for centuries, it preserves medieval structures and rooms transformed in later eras, nestled within the historic village of Scipione Castello.
