Rent a Cremona
Lying on the banks of the Po River, Cremona is one of the most picturesque capitals of Lombardy. Famous for the handcrafted production of violins, it has a wonderful historic center from the medieval period in which a few buildings in particular stand out: first and foremost, the symbol of the city, the Torrazzo, a 112-meter stone tower with 502 steps from the top of which, dizziness permitting, it is possible to appreciate a breathtaking view of the entire capital. In the same square where the Torrazzo is located, namely the Piazza del Duomo, there are many other buildings that turn heads because of their architectural beauty: the cathedral, for example, conceals within its interior a series of stupendous frescoes that have earned it the nickname “Sistine Chapel of the Po Valley”; and then the Baptistery, of Romanesque layout, but with flooring and a roof dating back to the Renaissance period; and again the red Loggia dei Militi and the Palazzo del Comune, which enrich the profile of the square with their crenellated roofs. To complete the “basic” cultural tour of the city, one can visit the Museo Del Violino and the Museo Civico “Ala Ponzone”: the latter houses numerous paintings including a painting by Caravaggio and one by Arcimboldo, as well as a number of ancient musical instruments. For those who love shopping, on the other hand, the center is dotted with historic boutiques related to typical local productions, especially gastronomic ones. Among the products you can’t help but taste is certainly nougat, particularly that produced by the historic Vergari and Sperlari companies, the protagonist of a dedicated festival in October; there are also many options for cheese lovers, who are never lacking on the Lombard table, for example Pannerone. If you have time to stop at a local osteria or restaurant, try Cremonese gran bollito, a famous local specialty.
Similar in name and style, but miniaturized, about thirty kilometers from Cremona is the small town of Crema with its splendid historic center dotted with stores, bars and extraordinary historic buildings. Another interesting destination in the vicinity of Cremona is Soncino, a medieval village that is absolutely worth a visit for its majestic Sforza fortress, the scene of many re-enactments, festivals and fairs especially during the summer. Lovers of “slow tourism” will find in these territories many interesting destinations for Sunday outings or a small artistic tour spread over several days and several cities, for example the closest ones in Emilia – Piacenza, Parma, Modena – as well as Lombardy’s Mantua. With the support of a rental car in Cremona, it is possible to work out many different regional itineraries covering one or more days, taking advantage of a vehicle commensurate with one’s needs.
