General presentation
Cremone et plaine du Po
A town of lutherie and historic squares, in a quiet Po plain, punctuated with rivers and small towns.
Cremone, Torrazzo de Cremone and Musee of the violin of Cremone give the most eloquent landmarks of Cremone and plain of Po. Together, they form a destination where urban life, riverscapes, heritage and the countryside meet, with atmospheres that change over the course of the stages rather than just one uniform decor.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Heritage
Centre historique de Crémone
The historic centre of Cremona is revealed by its alignments, its pace of places and its details of local life. We read about active uses when walking without a single itinerary: terraces, shops, passages, corners. Real interest arises from the transitions between urban animation and moments of break.
Heritage
Torrazzo de Crémone
The Torrazzo de Crémone It is understood in the vertical relationship of its location and the way the streets converge towards it. Architectural details require a reading at idle to bring out the balance between monumental and local anchorage. It is a place of trajectories more than panorama.
Heritage
Museo del Violino
The Museo del Violino It can be seen as a dialogue between memory and manufacture: instruments, exhibitions, indirect sound atmospheres. By circulating slowly, we can observe how the scenographic choices guide understanding. The journey becomes fluid when we let the objects lead the rhythm.
Town or village
Pizzighettone
Pizzighettone The city's streets, facades and usages give a concrete density when you walk around the outskirts of the main passage. The place really understands itself by slowing down the exploration.
