Fara Gera d'Adda footbridge

Highlight • Bridge

What to say? To go from Milan to Selvino this is not the fastest way, but certainly the safest, because out of traffic, and very pleasant.

Monumental Cemetery of Crespi d'Adda

Highlight • Historical Site

The cemetery designed by Gaetano Moretti has a rectangular planimetric shape and is located south of the village near the confluence of the Brembo with the Adda, reachable through an artery over 300 meters long, continuing the main avenue.

The complex is set in an agricultural environment of cultivated countryside: the whole plot to the right of the avenue and the cemetery, now uncultivated undergrowth, was once cultivated with vineyards and orchards while on the opposite side there was cereal cultivation.

The entrance takes place by means of a wrought iron gate positioned centrally on the north side, right in front of a majestic pyramid-shaped funeral monument that forms the backdrop of the cemetery.

The Crespi mausoleum consists of three galleries, a central staircase and an altar dedicated to the SS. Redeemer and to Saints Onorato and Simplicio; in it the space was prepared for fifty burials and it is the only property that remains today the property of its founders (the rest of the cemetery would be passed on January 1, 1931 to the company S.T.I. - Italian Textile Establishments - which will sell it in 1965 to the Municipality of Capriate San Gervasio).

Crespi d'Adda Workers' Village

Highlight (Segment) • Historical Site

The Crespi d'Adda Workers' Village is an exceptionally well-preserved historic company town, built starting in 1877 by the Crespi family for the workers of their cotton mill.

The town center is considered the finest example of a company town in Southern Europe for its conception of an "ideal city," where workers had all the necessary services, including single-family homes and social facilities. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that the houses are still inhabited.

Due to its importance, it was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995.

Panoramic switchbacks at Trezzo sull'Adda

Highlight • Trail

This panoramic descent towards the ancient port of Trezzo sull'Adda allows you to observe the castle of Trezzo, built between 1370 and 1377 by Bernabò Visconti. It is very suggestive to observe the concrete hairpin bends from above and it is not even difficult to see the church of Capriate San Gervasio on the Bergamo side. A cable ferry placed at the base of the hairpin bends, similar to that of Imbersago, connected the two banks until 1887, when the iron progenitor of the current reinforced concrete bridge was built.
