This wonderful
matildic pearl, isolated in the region of Ferrara, Bondeno,
witnesses the powerfulness of the 'canusine' forces all over
the Po plain. Its ancient difficult fight against its main ennemy,
the water, is visible thanks to a complex weft of enbankements
and channels disciplining such a precious ressource and such
a terrible menace. The abundance of humid areas, greendykes
and flourishing fields let the visitors enjoy the botanic and
faunistic value of the territory.
Some meaningful monumental places are worth a visit as well.
The centre of the town is dominated by a mediaeval bell tower
and presents an interesting necklace of religious (like the
Archipriest church, Paioli's oratory, San Giovanni's church...)
and civil buildings (Bottazzi's palace). Stellata, not far from
here, is the main attraction of the area, with its charming
Rocca Possente, defending the passage on the Po river, and the
ancient house of the Italian poet Ariosto. The epics of the
fight engaging men against water is well represented by the
scenographic napoleonic barrel, not far from the town.
