The historic city of Cremona in Lombardy is dominated by a monumental bell tower, the Torrazzo. At 112 meters tall, it is the tallest brick bell tower in Europe and one of the most impressive medieval structures in Italy. The Torrazzo was built gradually between the 13th and 14th centuries as part of the cathedral complex. Its brick construction testifies to both the technical ingenuity of medieval builders and the city's ambition to express its power and importance. In 1583, a unique astronomical clock was added to the tower, which still fascinates with its accuracy. Climbing the Torrazzo is a spiritual journey from earth to heaven, and it is not difficult to ascend the 502 steps that lead to the final terrace to enjoy a breathtaking 360° panorama. The visit includes a stop in the rooms dedicated to the study of time and astronomy in the new Vertical Museum, which was inaugurated in November 2018. https://www.cattedraledicremona.it/torrazzo-interno/?lang=de
