Cremona — Torrazzo & Centro Storico
Lombardy
Cremona's Torrazzo, at just over 110 m, is the tallest brick bell tower in Italy and a landmark visible across the flat Po plain for miles. The town below has made violins since Stradivari's time, its workshops still active, with a flat and level old-town centre easy to explore around the tower's base.
