Around
- San Martino Gusnago
- Castel Goffredo
- Castiglione delle Stiviere
- Alto Mantovano - Borderland of the Duchy of Mantua, which pursued the dream of obtaining an outlet on Lake Garda without ever realizing it, developed the courts of cadet branches of the Gonzaga family. Castel Goffredo, Castiglione delle Stiviere, Carpenedolo retain the urban layout and monuments of that era. The post-war period saw good employment development, with a consequent increase in well-being and population.
- Mantua - Capital of the Gonzagas, it still emanates its subtle charm of a great city of art for which it appoints it a UNESCO World Heritage Site it was not so much a recognition as a necessary acknowledgment. Its ancient atmospheres are incomparable, the profiles of the palaces and domes that stand out in the Po Valley mist enveloped by the mirror of its lakes, its endless Gonzaga palace that incorporates numerous buildings in the city center.
Itineraries
Morainic hills
- Via Postumia
- In the lands of the Gonzagas - An itinerary through the centers, large and small, which were the capitals of the Gonzaga cadet branches: principalities, marquisates, duchies which, within the Mantuan state structure, enjoyed real independence, often minted coins and held refined courts that rivaled that of Mantua, embellished their urban centers by equipping them with elegant architecture - churches, squares, palaces, walls, towers - and characteristic urban views such as the typical Gonzaga arcades.
- Places of the battle of Solferino and San Martino - The itinerary runs through the places where the historic one took place on 24 June 1859 battle of Solferino and San Martino.
- Rural churches and oratories of Castel Goffredo - The itinerary, entirely in the green countryside rich in waterways, runs through the numerous places of worship, which boast ancient traditions and are the sign of a widespread religiosity, since the sixteenth century.
- Towers and castles of the Alto Mantovano
