Known as "il Gotico" to those who live in Piacenza, due to the presence of pointed arches typical of Gothic architecture, this historic building in the city center hosted the poet Francesco Petrarca in 1351. Today it opens to the public only on the occasion of events or temporary exhibitions.

The main square of Piacenza with a beautiful Gothic palace. It takes its name from two equestrian statues of two members of the Farnese family, which for a long time dominated the city. The square is also overlooked by much less beautiful buildings, which quite seriously disrupt the view. However, a must-see for anyone visiting Piacenza.

Definitely worth it, there is a lot to explore, plan about 2 hours

Cathedral, mother church of the Diocese of Piacenza-Bobbio, built in two phases, between 1122 and 1150 and 1202 and 1235 (or between 1207 and 1250 according to other sources) in Romanesque style with the addition of Gothic elements in the second phase. The design of the building is said to have been the work of Niccolò, with whom Wiligelmo is also said to have collaborated. The interior has a dome painted in the seventeenth century by Morazzone and Guercino. The presbytery and choir were painted towards the end of the sixteenth century by Camillo Procaccini and Ludovico Carracci: most of their works were moved from their original location during nineteenth-century restorations. Under the belfry with four lancets there is an iron cage built by Ludovico il Moro in 1495, a kind of deterrent for the criminals of that time.

This square used to be the political and commercial center of Piacenza. It owes its name (Piazza Cavelli) to two masterpieces by Francesko mochi, the Baroque equestrian statues** of Alexander and Ranuccio I Farnese. The gigantic structure that towers above the square is the Gotico**. To the left of the square rises the facade of the 13th century Chiesa di san Francesco, an interesting example of Gothic Franciscan architecture.

The bridge with the Via Emilia is anything but special. The railway bridge, on the other hand, is a ponte strallato (cable bridge) that runs the ferrovia ad alta velocità Milano-Bologna over the River Po near Piacenza. This impressive bridgework is located at kilometer point 44.232 of the Milano-Bologna high-speed line. The entire viaduct that spans the Po has a length of 1,342 meters. The actual cable bridge section extends over 400 meters and spans the normal riverbed of the Po. The width of this section is 300 meters. The bridge deck consists of a three-cell concrete structure that rests on pillars on the banks. The weight is carried by 72 cables connected to two antennas. The central span measures 192 meters, while the two side spans are each 104 meters long. This bridge project was originally the largest steel and reinforced concrete railway bridge in the world and plays a crucial role in modern rail traffic between Milan and Bologna.

The square was built in the 13th century and is the most important political-economic center of the city. The enormous mass of the Palazzo Pubblico, traditionally called Gothic, dominates it. Opposite the Gothic palace is the Governor's Palace, built in 1787 to a design by the talented Piacenza architect Lotario Tomba. On the sides of the square, which was repaved in the last decade of the eighteenth century, are two bronze equestrian statues of the Dukes of Farnese, commissioned by the community of Piacenza to Francesco Mochi di Montevarchi.
