Torrazzo (Big Tower)
Torrazzo (Big Tower) Review
Dominating Piazza del Comune is the Torrazzo, the city's symbol and perhaps the tallest campanile in Italy, visible for a considerable distance across the Po Plain. It's open to visitors, but in winter, hours fluctuate depending on the weather. The tower's astronomical clock is the 1583 original.
