The historic city of Cremona in Lombardy is dominated by a monumental bell tower, the Torrazzo. At 112 meters tall, it is the tallest brick bell tower in Europe and one of the most impressive medieval structures in Italy. The Torrazzo was built gradually between the 13th and 14th centuries as part of the cathedral complex. Its brick construction testifies to both the technical ingenuity of medieval builders and the city's ambition to express its power and importance. In 1583, a unique astronomical clock was added to the tower, which still fascinates with its accuracy. Climbing the Torrazzo is a spiritual journey from earth to heaven, and it is not difficult to ascend the 502 steps that lead to the final terrace to enjoy a breathtaking 360° panorama. The visit includes a stop in the rooms dedicated to the study of time and astronomy in the new Vertical Museum, which was inaugurated in November 2018. https://www.cattedraledicremona.it/torrazzo-interno/?lang=de

A 2019 art installation by Giuseppe "Giupi" Boles: a large "window" framing sunsets over the Po. It is located in the Lido Po Park, in the floodplain area facing the city: a perfect resting point for those cycling along the riverbank, with an open view of the river, floodplains, and riparian forests. In summer, the "La Baia" bar is open just a few dozen meters away; there is parking and access to the trails of the Golena del Po Intermunicipal Park.

This oversized bench was the first Big Bench installed along the Po River, inaugurated in 2021 within the Po and Morbasco Park. Painted in red and gray, it harks back to Cremona tradition. Approximately two meters high and four meters wide, it invites you to stop for a unique break, take a photo, or simply observe the great river from a different perspective. A rubber mat at the base makes the space safe and playful for both adults and children. Not far from the bench is a fresh water fountain for refilling water bottles during your break.

There are very few rest areas on this long stretch of very well-paved road. So we were very happy to find this bench with a bike repair station. In summer, it's probably almost unbearable in the sun here.

In the small hamlet of Sonarolo Monasterolo, there is a hostel in the former rectory. There are single and double rooms, as well as a dormitory for groups. Advance reservations are required. By chance, there were women there who welcomed us and very hospitably provided us with water. So we were able to drink tea and rest in the small dining room. They apparently serve breakfast, but we don't know whether you can cook your own meals or whether they serve food. It would certainly be a very quiet place for one or more nights, about 30 km east of Cremona. https://www.ostellolacanonica.it/
