What see

Parish Church - Interior
  • 1 Parish church. Built in Lombard neo-Gothic style, it is dedicated to San Daniele and to the co-patrons Sant'Omobono and San Carlo Borromeo. On the façade (1899 - 1900), the work of the engineer Arnaldo Meazza, the Gothic character is expressed in the crowning decoration, in the spire of the bell tower and in the splitting of the front into three parts with gabled slopes of different sizes. Inside there are numerous works of Cremonese and Parma paintings from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, among which a canvas from the early 18th century that is attributed to Francesco Boccaccino and depicts San Daniele saved in the lions' den stands out. There are also paintings by the local nineteenth-century painter Cipelli.

Around

  • Sigh - It was an important Lombard center. It retains a Romanesque tower, symbol of the town, and boasts the beautiful neoclassical villa Cattaneo - Ala Ponzone, with a Palladian flavor, one of the most scenic in the lower Po valley.
  • Cicognolo - Exposed terracotta and marble make the impressive and varied appearance of the imposing Manfredi castle, scenographic in the green of the lawn that embellishes the ground in front of the main facade, with a romantic garden and moat behind it.
  • Torre de 'Picenardi - Villa Sommi Picenardi developed from a pre-existing castle nucleus; starting from the sixteenth century it was transformed in the following centuries up to its present appearance. A body of the villa, in neoclassical style, overlooks the town square. A second factory develops inside and is connected to the ancient body of the primitive castle. A large garden surrounds the villa complex, surrounded by a large moat with water.
  • San Lorenzo de 'Picenardi - Its Castle, built in the fifteenth century, was enlarged over time to then arrive at its present form, majestic and decidedly castellana, in the nineteenth century, the work of the architect Luigi Voghera. The vast building, in perfect condition, shows numerous crenellated towers which give it the characteristic medieval aspect, however mitigated by the elegant character of a noble castle residence. It is surrounded by a large park.
  • Sabbioneta - City of foundation, UNESCO World Heritage Site, maintains the walls within which the magic of ideal urban planning by Vespasiano Gonzaga has remained intact; the Teatro all'Antica, the Ducal Palace, the Gallery, the Incoronata church are some of its monuments that stand out in a context that has been admirably preserved.
