A bike ride took us to Lodi and among the wonders of this city there is a very small and very suggestive square, since it opens behind the Broletto and is closed between its porticoes and the left side of the Cathedral. Since the Middle Ages, the public life of the city has taken place here. Now there is the main seat of the Municipality and the Council, but also some stalls, a flower shop, the tourist office and a bar with outdoor tables. In the center, a fountain in pink Carrara marble, obtained from the baptismal font of the church.

Beautiful cycle/pedestrian path

The Bolognini Castle of Sant'Angelo Lodigiano boasts three magnificent museums: the Bolognini museum, the bread museum and the agricultural history museum.

One of the few saints who is highly valued outside of Christianity is San Francesco, known in German-speaking countries as Francis of Assisi. Francis was born in Assisi in 1181/82 and died in 1226. In his youth, as the son of wealthy parents, he was more of a bon vivant, but later he turned to Christ. One day he was praying in the half-ruined church of San Damiano, located on a hillside outside the city walls of Assisi, and heard the voice of Christ from the cross, calling on him to "rebuild his church". At first he took this request literally and restored the church building, but later he came to the realization that this was primarily about the church as the community of believers. Francis became a role model for many people, they joined him and the "Order of the Minor Brothers" (Ordo Fratrum Minorum) of Francis of Assisi was founded. Today, there are three male branches in the vast Franciscan order: the Franciscans, the Minorites and the Capuchins; and two female branches: the Franciscan sisters and the Poor Clares. In addition, there is the "Third" or "Secular" Order, which can be joined by women and men who do not take the classic religious vows (poverty, chastity and obedience) and continue to live in their families and professions.

The Cathedral of Lodi is the oldest sacred building in the city. Its construction was commissioned by Frederick Barbarossa and began in the year 1160 and ended a hundred years later. The composition of the facade, the use of exposed bricks and the design layout make the Lodi Cathedral one of the most famous examples of Lombard-Emilian style, more commonly known as Romanesque.
