now the bridge is closed for works

Very particular point of interest with a wooden bridge that floats thanks to boats. Watch out for floods in the river, sometimes it is closed for safety!

Suggestive bridge over the Oglio river, made up of a series of boats connected to each other and in turn to the mainland with "sliding" ramps so that they can be raised or lowered depending on the quantity of water present in the Oglio river. Attention: in the event of major floods the Ponte di Barche is temporarily closed to traffic.

This massive drainage system, located in the San Matteo delle Chiaviche hamlet of the municipality of Viadana, provides drainage for a hydraulic basin of approximately 32,000 hectares. It pumps the tributary waters through the Navarolo, Ceriana and Fossola canals into the Oglio river, with a total flow rate of approximately 53,000 liters per second. The plant, in addition to its hydraulic functions, is now home to the interpretation and documentation center of the ecomuseum of Viadana, Commessaggio, Dosolo and Gazzuolo.

Beautiful medieval portal of this village in the middle of the countryside

The history of Rivarolo Mantovano is strongly characterized by the domination of the Gonzaga family, of which there are important and numerous traces throughout the municipal territory. Historical research informs us that the first urban nucleus of Rivarolo was located about a kilometer away from the current position, as evidence of the ancient settlement there are still the remains of the terraqueous mill, located on the bank of the Delmona canal, and a tombstone, from the Lombard era, kept in the current parish church and coming from the ancient parish church. In 1432 the emperor Sigismund of Luxembourg officially sanctioned the Gonzaga lordship on the Rivarolo territory, which would continue for more than three centuries, leaving a precious baggage of history, monuments and traditions.

The walled city of Sabbioneta was born to put into reality the concept of the Renaissance "ideal city". The village, of great architectural, artistic and historical value, hosts sumptuous palaces and harmonic alleys. Since 2008 it has been included among the Italian Unesco sites.

In this area you can see various hydraulic engineering mechanisms, placed in correspondence with the watercourse: they are of fundamental importance for regulating the flow and preventing possible floods. The Fossola Canal, in the Municipality of Viadana, is in fact characterized by artificial conditions which can cause safety problems due to bed and bank erosion.
