Appartamento in Piazza Volontari del Sangue

This is the flat lower Po plain south of Cremona, with open agricultural land, irrigation channels and scattered farmsteads. The Oglio river corridor lies within reach to the east, and the Po is not far to the south, but around Pieve San Giacomo the immediate setting is mainly reclaimed and cultivated plain rather than a river landscape. Cremona is the nearest city of size, with a substantial historic centre, the Romanesque cathedral and Torrazzo, and daily services. The area is known for intensive agriculture and the food-producing plain of the Cremonese.
