The Visconti Castle is one of the “wonders” of Trezzo sull’Adda and certainly the symbol of the town, a village of ancient origins (4th-3rd centuries B.C.) located northeast of Milan. It was built in 1300 at the behest of Bernabò Visconti. This fortification surrounded on three sides by the river was built to defend a bridge, and because of its strategic location, it witnessed a troubled history of bloody battles and conquests, which saw Barbarossa, the Torriani and the Visconti as protagonists, and was destroyed several times but always rebuilt.
  • After visiting the village, we move to the restaurant “Al molo 13” in Trezzo sull’Adda The chosen menu is served in the restaurant with a panoramic terrace overlooking the river ( about 2 hours ).
