For pilgrims by bike: https://www.viefrancigene.org/it/resource/statictrack/da-mortara-a-pavia-tappa-06-in-bici/ From the Abbey of Sant'Albino, founded in the fifth century and then rebuilt, now a stop for pilgrims passing through Mortara, a beautiful path through cultivated fields and farms, irrigation canals and unexpected patches of trees leads us to Tromello, a stop on the route from Sigeric. Along the way we meet the sanctuary of Madonna delle Bozzole and pass some characteristic agricultural villages. Pay attention to the traffic along the SP 185. After Zerbolò we arrive at the confluence with the Ticino, which we bypass in some parts. The view of the river, combined with a varied presence of fauna, offers an evocative spectacle. Outside the cities it is not possible to get water, the only refreshment points are in Tromello and Zerbolò.

The Naviglio Langosco (in Lombard: Nivili Langosch) is a canal fed by the Ticino River. The purpose of this canal is to irrigate the fields in the Novarese and Lomellina regions. It was realized in the 17th century on the initiative of Count Guido Langosco. The count ordered the construction of the canal, which was designed by engineer Pietro Antonio Barca, and work began in 1613 and was completed in 1665. The canal begins in the province of Novara, north of the Ponte di Turbigo, and flows then through the areas of Galliate, Romentino, Trecate, and Cerano. It then leaves Piedmont and enters Lombardy, where it flows past Cassolnovo, Vigevano (where it crosses the Terdoppio), and Gambolò. It ends near Cascina Montagione, in the municipality of Tromello. 🏞️🇮🇹

The Basilica di San Lorenzo is Mortara's most prominent historical monument, a Gothic building from the 14th century. Located in the city center, near the Palazzo del Comune, it attracts attention with its terracotta facade. Architecture: Built in Gothic Lombard style between 1375 and 1380 by Bernardino da Novara. Martino Bassi made some structural changes in 1573. Exterior: The cotto facade has frescoes in the lunettes of the portals, made by Nando Bialetti. The tondi on the facade are by Boniforte da Mortara. The colorful stained glass windows are the work of Francesco Mossmeyer. Interior: Rich in works of art, including paintings by Paolo da Brescia and a remarkable wooden nativity scene by Lorenzo da Mortara. In the 20th century the interior was renovated by Giuseppe Piatti.

The collegiate basilica of San Lorenzo is dedicated to Lawrence of Rome and has the title of a minor basilica. The Gothic church dates from the 14th century and is the seat of the canon chapter. The church was designed between 1375 and 1380 by Bartolino da Novara in the Lombard Gothic style and was built of brick. A renovation was carried out in 1573 by Martino Bassi, restorations took place in 1840 and again in 1916. In this case, Giuseppe Piatti made the church simpler by removing chapels and replacing the altar. Pope Pius XII raised the church to the rank of a minor basilica in 1939. Source: Wikipedia

The Naviglio Langosco, born from the waters of the Ticino in the valleys of Cameri in the locality of La Quercia, crosses the valleys and woods of the Ticino Valley, passing through the Vigevano hydroelectric plant to power its turbines, and ends near the Cascina Montagione in Tromello in the province of Pavia. The area surrounding the path of this watercourse is very beautiful, it can be reached with all the dirt bikes and even on foot as the Via Francigena passes through it.
