Experience : Pasqua tra i borghi dell’Oltrepò Pavese:

About the destination: Pavia is a town and comune of south-western Lombardy, northern Italy, south of Milan on the lower Ticino river near its confluence with the Po. Pavia is the capital of the fertile province of Pavia known for agricultural products including wine, rice, cereals, and dairy products. Although there are a number of industries located in the suburbs, these tend not to disturb the peaceful atmosphere of the town. The town also is home to the ancient University of Pavia (founded in 1361). Pavia is the see city of the Roman Catholic diocese of Pavia. The city possesses many artistic and cultural treasures, including several important churches and museums, such as the well-known Certosa di Pavia.

About the destination: Voghera, which is currently the main economic center of the area south of the Po River in the Province of Pavia (called Oltrepo pavese), flourished, from an artistic point of view, during the 17th and 18th centuries, under the impulse of the Visconti and of the Savoy. From this period remain the Cathedral from the 17th century (with a medieval bell and a 19th century façade), the Red Church (Chiesa Rossa) from the Romanesque period (12th century). The old 14th century Castle is currently home to a small museum.
