サッビオネータのおすすめランニングルート

Pedaling through the streets of Sabbioneta is like pedaling in a Renaissance painting. It is no coincidence that this small and perfect Lombard city was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2008. A jewel of Italian architectural history that is worth visiting.

This characteristic village in the Mantua area is best known for the pontoon bridge that allows you to cross the Navarolo canal. Right next to the bridge is the imposing Torrazzo tower. A watchtower commissioned by Vespasiano Gonzaga.

Inserted together with Mantua in the list of UNESCO world heritage sites since 2008, Sabbioneta was built in about thirty-five years by order of Prince Vespasiano Gonzaga. The city is a perfect example of the application of Renaissance theories in the field of urban planning and the design of an ideal city: buildings of historical and artistic interest still bear witness to this today, as do the sumptuous examples of figurative art in Renaissance style which they bear the signature of important authors from the Lombardy and Emilian areas and from the Venetian school.

Pretty village, one of the access routes is via a characteristic barge bridge.

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.

Passing by without visiting this beautiful ancient village? Nooo!

Sabbioneta is an Italian town of about 4 141 inhabitants in the province of Mantua in Lombardy.

Beautiful but decadent. I stopped for a great sandwich at the entrance to the Bar Stazione. Always open from morning to evening. It was definitely busy at lunchtime.
