La Pilotta, what a marvel!

Cattedrale di Parma

First the square, with its history full of unexpected traditions, then we will fix our gaze on the facade of the Cathedral: try to guess what should have been there... and there isn't! We will discover the political meanings of shapes and sculptures and we will enter the Cathedral to be speechless in front of the frescoes in the central nave! And then off, towards the stairway to admire Correggio's masterpiece (the dome) and find out why it caused such a sensation... so much so as to scandalize the citizens! At the exit, third culinary stop: Parmesan!
