ソンチーノのおすすめライド

ついに教会、あまりごちゃごちゃしていない

winter version

Beautiful little roads that can be cycled on both road and gravel, all away from traffic.

Very beautiful, almost entirely shaded and cool. In some places, the vegetation is very lush, but there are alternative routes. As always, there are the inevitable fallen tree trunks along the way. One in particular is 15 cm in diameter, but you can climb over it. Have a good trip!

Soncino: a journey through time amidst walls and mysteries. In the heart of the Lombardy plain, Soncino offers a journey back in time. The majestic Sforza Castle, with its imposing towers and intact moat, tells stories of battles and ancient splendor. Strolling through the village's alleys, you'll discover secret corners, hidden frescoes, and a medieval atmosphere that will make you feel like you're in a fairytale. Perfect for those seeking an adventure between history and nature!

The Madonnina dell'Oglio is a satellite sanctuary of Santa Maria del Fonte in Caravaggio, dedicated to the famous apparition

Churches from the eighteenth century rebuilt between 1948 and 1953, the ancient dome of the bell tower was instead replaced with a new spire in 1961

Very simple church from 1600 was originally also provided with three other altars, one dedicated to the Body of Christ (with a painted altarpiece and in poor condition), one dedicated to the saints Christopher and Anthony with a fresco, and one to Saint Rocco with a painted altarpiece depicting the saint together with Saint Sebastian and the Blessed Virgin. There were two entrances (one on the front and one on the side) and the windows were without glass, protected only by tattered cloths. The floor was only partially paved with tiles, the rest was in beaten earth. The Grand Chancellor of the County of Romanengo, Diego Salazar, donated in 1618 the relics of twelve saints placed in a precious wooden reliquary, now disappeared. The building was probably expanded at an unspecified period, maintaining its original characteristics.
