The hydraulic junction of the Tombe Morte-Tredici Ponti constitutes the most important concentration of artificial waterways in the province of Cremona, irrigating approximately 85,000 hectares of countryside. Here the Naviglio Civico di Cremona, the Naviglio Grande Pallavicino and the Canale Vacchelli intersect, the latter pouring almost all of its flow into the Naviglio Pallavicino, the Naviglio Civico and a dozen irrigation ditches through an impressive system of locks. Finally, a spillway, built between 1968 and 1981, detaches from the junction, which discharges any excess flow from the Naviglio Civico, the Naviglio Pallavicino and the Vacchelli into the Oglio river. Two different hypotheses have been made regarding the origin of the name, the first would originate from the term tomba which is synonymous with siphon, a hydraulic element that connects two conduits. Probably some of these artifacts would have fallen into disuse, hence the adjective death. Another hypothesis is linked to the discovery of several dozen burials dating back to the late Roman era.

The Vacchelli canal is found in many routes between the areas of Lodi, Crema and Cremona, it always offers wonderful views and is bordered by cycle paths along almost its entire length.

Very simple church from 1600 was originally also provided with three other altars, one dedicated to the Body of Christ (with a painted altarpiece and in poor condition), one dedicated to the saints Christopher and Anthony with a fresco, and one to Saint Rocco with a painted altarpiece depicting the saint together with Saint Sebastian and the Blessed Virgin. There were two entrances (one on the front and one on the side) and the windows were without glass, protected only by tattered cloths. The floor was only partially paved with tiles, the rest was in beaten earth. The Grand Chancellor of the County of Romanengo, Diego Salazar, donated in 1618 the relics of twelve saints placed in a precious wooden reliquary, now disappeared. The building was probably expanded at an unspecified period, maintaining its original characteristics.

The intersection of these channels is very suggestive
