Tips from the Community
Perfect footbridge, be careful that you have to "anticipate" the entry into the cycle path well before the bridge. Entering Cremona it comes quite naturally, being on the right side of the road; exiting instead, finding yourself on the left side of the road, you have to take it at the roundabout, afterwards it becomes impossible to cross, both due to traffic and the presence of a dividing wall.

The Pizzighettone railway bridge is an important metal arch infrastructure located on the Pavia-Mantova line (in the Codogno-Cremona section) which crosses the Adda river, connecting the Pizzighettone station with the Ponte d'Adda stop.

Pizzighettone boasts one of the best-preserved city walls in Lombardy. Built in the Middle Ages and then reinforced during the Spanish era, they still surround a large portion of the historic center along the banks of the Adda River. The casemates and internal walkways allow you to imagine military life in the past, when the village was a strategic garrison between Milan and Cremona. Strolling around the walls, you can admire towers, bastions, and perfectly restored sections.
