Message from Francesco Meola

Vigevano is a historic town in Lombardy renowned for its impressive Renaissance architecture and charming atmosphere. At its heart lies the stunning Piazza Ducale, a grand square surrounded by elegant arcades and historical buildings, designed by the renowned architect Bramante. The town is also known for the Castello Sforzesco, a well-preserved castle that offers insight into its rich history and beautiful views of the surrounding area. Vigevano is celebrated for its traditional craftsmanship, particularly its shoe-making heritage, which continues to be a point of pride. With its picturesque streets and vibrant cultural scene, Vigevano offers a delightful blend of history, architecture, and local charm.

You can easily reach Vigevano by train from Milan or the nearby city of Pavia. The city is great for a day trip, if you love history and want to discover something off the beaten path, Vigevano is a great choice.

Recommendation: Rent a bike/e-bike and explore the surrounding area. You can reach the small town of Morimondo and Abbiategrasso and enjoy the beautiful scenary.
