アルセーノ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.

This pedestrian and cycle bridge allows you to cross the Arda stream away from traffic, safely connecting the surrounding countryside with Fiorenzuola d'Arda. The bridge offers a panoramic view of the river and the Piacenza plain, with its green banks and typical agricultural landscapes.

A wonderful stop. Both the church and the baptistery were open, and we were able to enter for a visit. It's worth a detour if you're in the area.

Amazing Pizza for refueling!

Wonderful abbey - a former Cistercian monastery - A dove dropped pieces of wood, thus determining the size of the abbey. Hence the name Colomba = dove
