The Parish Church of Sant'Agata is located in the historic center of Cremona, overlooking the Cittanova Palace on Corso Giuseppe Garibaldi. The original church on this site was built in 1077 in the Romanesque style and was first rebuilt in the 12th century. Only the bell tower remains of this Romanesque church. Inside, it boasts stunning frescoes by Giulio Campi and remarkable works of art such as the Table of Saint Agatha. The church's Neoclassical façade, designed by Luigi Voghera, adds to its architectural charm. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sant%27Agata,_Cremona

The building was constructed in the thirteenth century outside the ancient Roman city and, together with the Church of Sant'Agata, formed the core of the new urban expansion in the Middle Ages, desired by the "bourgeois" faction, as opposed to the "notables," who centered their power in the Piazza del Comune. The new palace served as the meeting place for the "Società del Popolo," where the Populists elected their consuls and conducted their business. Inspired by the architecture of the Palazzo Comunale, it stands in the square with a two-story façade: the lower story consists of a portico with Gothic arches, while the upper story is constructed of brick and crowned with crenellations, and four triple lancet windows illuminate a single large room. In 1410, the building became the seat of the University, or Paratico dei mercanti dell'arte del Pignolato (Guild of Merchants of the Arts of Pignolato). https://www.turismocremona.it/en/palazzo-cittanova

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

Saturday market, crowded Piazza Duomo and Torrazzo

This oversized bench was the first Big Bench installed along the Po River, inaugurated in 2021 within the Po and Morbasco Park. Painted in red and gray, it harks back to Cremona tradition. Approximately two meters high and four meters wide, it invites you to stop for a unique break, take a photo, or simply observe the great river from a different perspective. A rubber mat at the base makes the space safe and playful for both adults and children. Not far from the bench is a fresh water fountain for refilling water bottles during your break.

This brick tower, approximately 40 meters tall, is the bell tower of the ancient Romanesque church of Santa Maria della Neve, now lost. It is known as the Torre della Norma and is the historical symbol of Casalbuttano. Dating back to the 12th century, it retains the sober and massive appearance typical of medieval Lombard architecture. As you climb into the village, you immediately notice its imposing presence: a visual landmark that tells the story of the long history of this agricultural village in the Cremona plain.
