Gothic Palace (Piacenza)

Highlight • Historical Site

This square used to be the political and commercial center of Piacenza. It owes its name (Piazza Cavelli) to two masterpieces by Francesko mochi, the Baroque equestrian statues** of Alexander and Ranuccio I Farnese. The gigantic structure that towers above the square is the Gotico**. To the left of the square rises the facade of the 13th century Chiesa di san Francesco, an interesting example of Gothic Franciscan architecture.

Ponte dell'Olio — Bridge over the Nure River

Highlight • Bridge

It may seem paradoxical, but in Ponte dell'Olio there is a splendid bridge over the Nure stream. Coming from Vigolzone or Rivergaro, you will have a splendid bell tower in front of you.
