THE TOWN OF MONCRIVELLO<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Walking through the streets of Moncrivello, we recommend a visit to the Parish Church of St. Eusebius<\/mark><\/strong>, built as it appears today in 1856 in Neoclassical style on the site of an old previously existing church. Only the bell tower, although renovated, has retained its Romanesque appearance. The Castle of Moncrivello<\/strong>,<\/mark> symbol of the town, is a medieval structure that originated around the year 1000. Featuring Romanesque architecture and valuable Renaissance elements, it is enclosed in a mighty city wall adorned with Ghibelline battlements. It was a leading fortress, and was transformed in the 15th century by Duchess Jolanda into a splendid residence, becoming the favourite castle of several famous noblewomen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Near the village is the Sanctuary of the Blessed Virgin of Trompone,<\/mark><\/strong> which was built in 1559. Interesting features are the three aisles and the dome that houses a cycle of frescoes attributed to Gaudenzio Ferrari. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
