Ponte Coperto (the Covered Bridge) in Pavia

Highlight • Bridge

The Covered Bridge connects the historic center of Pavia to Borgo Ticino. The first bridge at this point was built by order of Emperor Augustus and was replaced in the 14th century by a covered bridge. Due to the damage suffered by the Allied bombings during the Second World War, one of the arches of the fourteenth-century bridge collapsed and it was decided to demolish the entire structure. The new bridge was inaugurated in 1951; on the entrance portal on the city side, in memory of past events, a plaque was placed reading: "On the ancient passage of the cerulean Ticino, in the image of the ancient Covered Bridge, demolished by the fury of war, the Italian Republic rebuilt it".

Covered Bridge (Pavia)

Highlight • Bridge

The Covered Bridge, also known as Ponte Vecchio, crosses the Ticino River and connects the historic center of Pavia with the characteristic Borgo Ticino district, originally located outside the peripheral walls of the city. The neighborhood was traditionally inhabited by washermen, scree workers and fishermen.

The bridge, symbol of Pavia, is particular, with its five arches, entirely covered by a structure, and equipped with two portals at its ends. Also, there is a small chapel in the middle of the bridge.

The current Ponte Coperto was built between 1949 and 1951 and reflects the characteristics of the ancient Ponte Coperto dating back to the 14th century, which in turn had replaced the ancient Roman bridge (whose columns are still visible today).

Scenic route through the Ticino Valley

Highlight • Cycleway

The roads that lead (or leave) to / from Pavia along the orographic right side of Ticino are so relaxing to travel by bicycle that they can almost be confused as cycle paths if it were not for the passage of some occasional car.
The environment they pass through is purely countryside, with boundless fields of corn, rice and occasional sunflower fields.
If you do not want to travel only on asphalt, the Ticino bank is full of single tracks suitable for gravel and MTB

Carbonara on the Ticino

Highlight • Settlement

Carbonara al Ticino is a municipality in the Italian province of Pavia, located in the Lombardy region. It has approximately 1,418 inhabitants and has an area of 14.78 km². This picturesque town is located in the eastern Lomellina, close to the right bank of the Ticino River. The name “Carbonara” has its origins in the ancient Sylva Carbonaria, a vast forest between the settlement and the Ticino, where charcoal was periodically produced. Carbonara's history dates back to the Lombard period, and it was once a royal fief.

Sanctuary of Santa Maria del Novello

Highlight • Religious Site

The sanctuary of Santa Maria del Novello is located in the floodplain area next to the left main bank of the Po. The river flows a few hundred meters.
Popular tradition has it placed to protect from the floods of the Great River.
The construction, built on an ancient chapel and carried out by the Bonacossa family, dates back to the end of 1500.
Inside the sanctuary it is still possible to admire the original fresco of the ancient chapel.
In a state of disrepair at the end of the 1800s, the building was recovered in 1922 and since then its rebirth has been celebrated on the last Sunday of August
