What we will see

A guided tour following the Renaissance period of the city where it is possible to visit the castle called “The Falcon of Italy” still perfectly preserved today. Situated on the Cidneo Hill it dominates the city. It appears as a set of military and religious buildings and in them we can read a past linked to the Visconti and the Venetian domination. In the castle we can find the Arms Museum which displays 580 pieces including swords, pistols and guns. The historical period goes from 1400 to 1800 A.D. The weapons belonged to the private collection of Luigi Marzoli which were donated to the city.
