A very pretty square in the heart of Vigevano! It is very calm and was designed by Leonardo da Vinci! Very historic too!

Even when we visited Vigevano in one of late September afternoons the piazza was almost deserted. It seemd that people were still on holiday and most shops were closed. It had a very calm and peaceful vibes to the town. Had a quiet stroll around the Piazza and had snacks and coffee. We enjoyed the couple of hours we had there a lot.

A few years ago I read somewhere that this was one of the most beautiful squares in the world. The numerous photos by pros and tourists testify it. Being born in Piedmont, I used to visit this quaint town quite often, appreciating its medieval cobblestone alleys, to reach the piazza Ducale and enjoy an excellent ice cream. A lot has changed, nothing stays forever, but the square has maintained its grandeur. The historical shops have disappeared in favor of expensive eateries with rude and hasty service, aiming only at you spending $ on mediocre food and drinks. Head towards the hidden, narrow streets that surround it and you’ll find small pubs and food joints with courteous and amicable service and decent prices. By the way, DO visit the Sforza castle, it’s a true medieval gem with frescos, ancient and secret gardens and horse stables. It’ll satisfy your cravings for history and well kept ancient artifacts

It is an incredible city😍 because it is full of monuments and place to eat and sit having the Ducale square view. It is very recommended to come at least one time.

One of a top place in Europa, beautiful and spectacular. You can feel the history of the place. As the city put a lot of descriptions and some guide everywhere.

Just wow - what a nice place. So many nice historical details. And not so crowded.

One of many beautiful bridges I have seen in my life, but definitely not overrated. Very stunning! It's also called bridge of sighs and has an really interesting history, which is worth a google. I'm not too sure if you can actually walk over it but you dmcould view it from afar as see in the pictures or take a ride in a gondola and float along the waterways.

A stunning Cathedral in the heart of Vigevano! Very beautiful interiors and exteriors - an architectural masterpiece!

Love Vigevano cathedral 😍, the paintings and architecture are stunning.!

This cathedral is the symbol of a very famous attraction in Vigevano, Piazza Ducale. A beautiful must-to-see when exploring the area.

Lovely little town. Only the town centre is interesting. When I visited there was a chocolate festival. Mmmm yummy.

Beautiful church

Surprising and richly decorated church

Impressive

Beautiful place to visit

It's lovely

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful and evocative, it takes you back in time to the medieval period and on two floors it connected the old fortress to the castle (Original) Molto bella e suggestiva si ritorna indietro nel tempo al periodo medievale e su due piani e collegava la rocca vecchia al castello

(Translated by Google) One of a kind in Europe, it has gigantic proportions, it is 167 meters long and 7 meters wide, exceeding a height difference of 10 meters between the Maschio del Castello and the place where the Rocca Vecchia stood. It was built in 1347 by Luchino Visconti to allow the lords of Milan to escape in case of danger. (Original) Unica nel suo genere in Europa ha proporzioni gigantesche, è lunga 167 metri e larga 7, supera un disdivello di 10 metri fra il Maschio del Castello e il luogo in cui sorgeva la Rocca Vecchia. Fu realizzata nel 1347 da Luchino Visconti per consentire ai signori di Milano di fuggire in caso di pericolo.

(Translated by Google) Spectacular. One of a kind in all of Europe. This is a covered walkway 167 meters long. and 7 meters wide. and overcomes a difference in height of over 10 metres. used to access the castle in complete anonymity. It connected the castle to the old fortress. It was also used to evacuate quickly in the event of an attack. The remaining frescoes are beautiful. The rings on the wall for tying the horses are still present. Also used in wartime for the transit of military vehicles. Today it is in good condition and has probably suffered more damage from vandals than time. For a detailed description of its history, please refer to other links. Also interesting is the underground passage which is located on the right of the entrance heading towards the castle, there are 2 drinking troughs for the horses. (Original) Spettacolare. Unica nel suo genere in tutta Europa. Trattasi di un camminamento coperto lungo 167 mt. e largo 7 mt. e supera un dislivello di oltre 10 mt. usato per accedere al castello in tutto anonimato. Collegava il castello alla vecchia rocca. Serviva anche in caso di attacco per evacuare rapidamente. Belli gli affreschi rimasti. Ancora presenti gli anelli al muro per legare i cavalli. Utilizzata anche in tempo di guerra per il transito di mezzi militari. Oggi si presenta in buone condizioni di conservazione, probabilmente ha subito più danni da parte dei vandali che del tempo. Per la descrizione dettagliata della sua storia rimando ad altri link. Interessante anche in passaggio sotterraneo che si trova sulla destra dell'ingresso dirigendosi verso il castello, presenti 2 abbeveratoi per i cavalli.

(Translated by Google) You can't miss it. There is nothing beautiful about the truth but it must be seen for what it was and represents, and then in just 10 minutes you can see both the covered one and the underground one. Useful for taking 2 photos (Original) Non la si può perdere. Di bello non ha nulla la verità ma va vista per quello che era e rappresenta,e poi in 10 min scarsi si può vedere si quella coperta che che quella sotterranea. Utile per fare 2 foto

(Translated by Google) It is a unique structure in Europe. It is a fortified road built on 2 levels (one partially underground) which connected the Rocca Vecchia with the current Castle. The upper floor connects the courtyard of the Castle and passing over 2 towers, comes out in the courtyard of the Rocca Vecchia, while the lower one has its entrance for the public in the entrance hall of the tower called in the city as "Il Portone" (near Piazza Ducale) and always ends in the courtyard of the Rocca Vecchia. It dates back to 1300 and is approximately 167 meters long. Very suggestive, sometimes used for exhibitions and events. (Original) È una struttura unica in Europa. Si tratta di una strada fortificata costruita su 2 livelli ( uno parzialmente sotterraneo) che collegava la Rocca Vecchia con l'attuale Castello. Il piano superiore collega il cortile del Castello e passando sopra 2 torri, sbuca nel cortile della Rocca Vecchia, mentre quello inferiore, ha il suo ingresso per il pubblico nell'androne della torre denominata in città come " Il Portone"( nei pressi di Piazza Ducale )e termina sempre nel cortile della Rocca Vecchia. Risale al 1300 ed è lunga circa 167 metri. Molto suggestiva , usata a volte per esposizioni ed eventi.

Such Beautiful Milano’s History! The castle is magic, and the space inside so good to walk around. Milan is always Milan!

Historical place with a sign of Leonardo da Vinci. Interesting museums, Piazza Ducale, cozy restaurants.

Great starters and pizza, good wine and beer. Beautiful evening setting in the central plaza with lots of activity. Eat some great food and watch the locals passing by.

A great experince dining in the castle

VIGEVANO BIENNALE 2024 furst edition from the 8fh of APRIL to the 31st of MAY 2024 COSMIC SPACE STRASHIP3535 AVVENIRISMO3535 - MAKING LIFE AN ART

Very strange place, it has a good potential as a touristic place but they didn't invest and prepare enough what they have. (1) missing smiles to visitors (2) include explanations for each picture (more than just the time when Leonardo did it) (3) include English as well (everything was only in Italian (4) video Exposition requires more bright or less illumination, it was impossible to watch anything. (5) it was no explanation of the constructions prototypes at all (6) maintenance in general in the castle was veeeeery poor... Missing restores of painted walls, everything was practically in nude bricks (what it was not the original shape of the castle) It's a pity because the place can be really a nice touristic place helping to increase the economy of the village.

Great pizza, not big but very varied, interestingly mixed, tasty. Very friendly, helpful staff. Not too much place inside but thanks to that more cosy. Near to Pallazo Sforza and Piazza Ducale. Could be problem with parking but not more than in other Italian old towns.

WOW

Beautiful!!!

(Translated by Google) I followed a beautiful musical initiative in the so-called "ridotto" of the Cagnoni, which is a beautiful space located outside the theater stalls and located on a mezzanine floor. We need to keep an eye on the cultural and musical initiatives put in place by the Municipality and also available online because they are often created precisely in this space. Unfortunately, as the space is small, there are few seats but it's really worth it!!! (Original) Ho seguito una bellissima iniziativa musicale nel cosiddetto "ridotto" del Cagnoni, che è un bellissimo spazio situato al di fuori della platea del teatro e collocato su un piano rialzato. Bisogna tenere d'occhio le iniziative di carattere culturale e musicale messe in campo dal Comune e disponibili anche online perché spesso vengono realizzate proprio in questo spazio. Purtroppo essendo piccolo lo spazio, ci sono pochi posti a sedere ma ne vale veramente la pena!!!

Great food, the service was nice and friendly however a bit slow. We had the goose cold meat platter as a starter and the saffron risotto with rabbit sausage for the main course. Both were absolutely delicious. The dessert was good but not memorable. Will gladly go back there.

Local, seasonal dishes elevated in style and paired with excellent wines. Competent and friendly staff, you can never go wrong coming here. There are some signature dishes like the slowcooked goose leg and goose charcuterie, typical of the region, that cannot be missed. My hubby had the "leg", this time I opted for a fritto misto - a mix of deep fried vegetables and meat cuts, with different batters, all where crisp and delicious. The selected cure meats were served with a crunchy gnocco fritto, and the vitello tonnato was as good as beautiful. Sweet end with peaches in sweet wine, and sorbet.

Fantastic meal with wonderful and kind service. Now one of my favorites in Vigevano

This hidden gem is a delight. I've visited twice, and each time, my order was a pleasure. The menu features a curated selection that reflects the owner's confidence—a sign you're dining in an exceptional restaurant.

Terrible food just thrown on the plate with brown cheep wrapping paper underneath. Food was served just warm, and one person at our table got served the main meal when all four of us finished ours. When waiters were reminded about the missing plate of food, the passing ones just nodded in response. Ignorance from staff throughout the whole restaurant, including the owner. I very strongly do not recommend this eating place ( can't call it restaurant) and will ask a hotel staff to exclude it from recomended ones.

Had the most delicious meal here last night! Staff were extremely friendly despite my lack of Italian, and so helpful. Had the most delicious confit goose leg with potatoes, and was given a small starter of the most amazing goose pate and salami (I wasn’t hungry enough for the full starter). Such a treat :) thank you!

Great place to eat goose, if you are in Vigevano I highly recommend, this was my second time and definitely I will return next time I'm in town 🤙🤙🤙

It's my new favorite restaurant!!! Even an ordinary pasta dish becomes a classic in the hands of these masters! Edit: I'm lucky enough to be here again! Still great!!

Fantastic restaurant with more than delicious food. Great atmosphere and "simpatico" Staff. Great taste od every dish. Tiramisu the best of All over the world! Calnelloni like from Mamma!

Great restaurant with great seafood options in the beautiful Piazza Ducale!

Best seafood in the world!

we had lunch here in 2013 the meal was beautiful , one of the great memories from our trip. Via Bainsizza, 28 - 21049 TRADATE (VA) Italy We returned in 2016 and found they had moved around the corner. Rococo is still fantastic place to enjoy great meal a must visit.

The best food I’ve had in the city! Friendly staff and good prices

The piazza itself is arguably the most beautiful in Italy. Think about Leonardo da Vinci working in Ludovico Sforza’s birthplace on numerous occasions. There are not many places in Vigevano to eat. The two places on the piazza were outstanding. It really was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. The atmosphere made the exceptional food even better. I could hear other people commenting on their experience in different languages. I wish I could be there now.

They’ve got an interesting bronzing trick which makes their dishes unique, but it’s a little overdone. Service was great, and this is certainly not a touristy spot... we enjoyed the lunch stop while visiting the Moreschi factory. Food is good, service is better and ambiance is excellent.

Good tasty food. Octopus was excellent! It was very crowded but no complaints for the rest. Thank you!

Beautiful place, Great menu, good ambiance! Plates are pieces of art and so special ! The dessert, mama mia !

The food in this place is simply delicious. I spent two days in Vigevano and ate twice here. We tried at least 10 different dishes and each one was cooked to perfection. Staff is very nice, my daughter was being a bit grumpy and they helped out a lot. We had a bottle of bonarda which was very good. 2 courses, dessert and wine costs around 25 pound which is an excellent price for such a delicious meal!

Excellent food and lovely staff

Fantastic food at this modem restaurant. They do have a garden in the back which is really nice. The food was absolutely delicious and a bit different than the standard Italian fare. Good service as well.

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST! I don’t mean the best in Vigevano, I mean this is one of the best restaurants I have ever been in my life! Congrats to the chef, so kind and extremely talented. I love this place!

-It's a nice place with many stores. -there is a food court, but it doesn't have a Halal restaurant. - There is a large parking area, and it’s usually not crowded.

This is a decent shopping Center. Lots of different stores, and some things for the kids to do…. Not sure who’s idea it was to have a tyre bath for kids to jump into, but hey ho. Topfloor is a little empty, but the poke bowl place was fresh. People come and wile away hours with coffee and air conditioning. Has a large supermarket where you can get everything and a Variant of everything, best place is UniEuro, which will comment on separately. Parking is plentiful, it’s never that busy, and it’s clean.

Il Ducale is a decent place to spend a couple hours during a hot summer weekend in the city when it's too hard to stay outside but unfortunately many of the shops inside struggle and often close leaving many parts of the mall empty. I strongly suggest the ice cream.

One of my favorite malls when I visit the area. It is located on three floors, has covered parking and quite a few restaurants. There is also a major grocery store within, so most of the necessities are there.

Really beautiful and big shopping mall. Three floors and an Ipercoop market here

A nice shopping mall, you can find different shops mostly with clothes.

Beautiful stores , good merchandise ,good price's .

Nice ambiance

(Translated by Google) TOP manager. Nice place. Provided. The only flaw: "it's dated!"; needs new tables, chairs, barbecues, grills, cleaning, disinfestation, etc... I advise the manager to ban music for customers so as not to disturb those who appreciate tranquility and nature. Furthermore, putting in some games for children under 6 would be appropriate (swing, slide). Once everything is fixed, increase the price; €50/60 per seat for up to 10 people would be honest. (Original) Gestore TOP. Bel posto. Fornito. Unica pecca: "è datato!"; necessita di nuovi tavoli, sedie, barbecue, griglie, pulizia, disinfestazione, ecc... Consiglio al gestore di vietare la musica ai clienti per non disturbare chi gradisce la tranquillità e la natura. Inoltre, mettere qualche gioco per i bambini sotto i 6 anni sarebbe opportuno (altalena, scivolo). Sistemato il tutto aumentare il prezzo; 50/60€ a postazione fino a 10 persone sarebbe onesto.

(Translated by Google) A green oasis just a few minutes outside the city. Ideal for a picnic or a leisurely stroll.

(Translated by Google) It is located in Piedmont, but not far from Milan. It is located near the Ticino river, has wooden tables and benches and normal tables, simple and brick barbecues. Inside the area there is a bar, a restaurant and there are bathrooms. The environment is not elegant, frequented by South Americans who drink and play their music at high volume, the bathrooms are in terrible condition. You pay 15 euros per barbecue plus 2 euros per person, they could take better care of the place. (Original) Si trova in Piemonte, ma non distante da Milano. È situato vicino al fiume Ticino, ha tavoli e panche di legno e tavoli normali, barbecue semplici e i n muratura. Allinterno dell'area c'è un bar, un ristorantino e ci sono i bagni. L'ambiente non è elegante, frequentato da sudamericani che bevono e mettono la loro musica ad alto volume, i bagni sono in pessime condizioni. Si pagano 15 ero a barbecue più 2 euro a persona, potrebbero curare di più il posto.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful place. But it's a shame there are so many worms falling from the trees. You can't eat peacefully just picking up the worms that fall on you. (Original) Posto molto bello. Ma peccato che ci sono molti ma molti vermi che cadono dagli alberi. Non si mangia tranquilli per stare a togliere i vermi che ti cadono addosso.

Pretty good exhibition though a tad small by comparison. The museum marries both, classical and modern methods of presentation. Clever use of technology does elevate the visitor experience. Many of the works are historical reproductions. The codex and manuscripts on display were interesting. I did wish for the exhibition to be more detailed/ enriching and larger given how well endeared Leonardo Da Vinci and his work is today.

interesting exhibition, really nice exhibit design, a little overpriced in my opinion. still worth a visit if you're around

Loved it :-) great mixture of Leonardo's works

It's just a collection of copies of documents and paintings. Really nothing worth a visit (overpriced anyway).

Top special bello

(Translated by Google) We have wanted to visit this museum for a long time and I must say that it is not bad. The ticket can be purchased at the infopoint (under the Bramante tower) the cost is 5 euros and I advise you to use cash because with cards you pay 1.50 euros more per ticket and you need to leave your details and code tax as it is included among the PA payments, public administration). Overlooking this cumbersomeness... I was saying that it is a small but interesting museum. Notebooks and models taken from Leonardo's drawings are on display. The really interesting thing is Leonardo's curriculum vitae. In a letter written to Ludovico il Moro, the genius da Vinci proposed to build defense and offensive weapons, bridges and even backdrops for theatrical performances. I do not recommend visiting with small children because almost everything is to be read. Overall, it should be visited at least once. (Original) Da tempo desideravamo visitare questo museo e devo dire che non è male. Il biglietto si acquista presso ľinfopoint (sotto la torre del Bramante) il costo è di 5 euro e vi consiglio di usare i contanti perché con le carte si pagano 1,50 euro in più a biglietto ed è necessario lasciare i propri dati e il codice fiscale in quanto rientra fra i pagamenti pago pa, pubblica amministrazione). Sorvolando su questa macchinosità.. Dicevo che è un museo piccolo, ma interessante. Sono esposti quaderni e modellini tratti dai disegni di Leonardo. La cosa davvero interessante è il curriculum vitae di Leonardo. In una lettera scritta a Ludovico il Moro, il genio da Vinci si propone per costruire armi di difesa e di offesa, ponti e perfino fondali per spettacoli teatrali. Sconsiglio la visita con bambini piccoli perché è quasi tutto da leggere. Nel complesso, almeno una volta va visitato.

(Translated by Google) A very pleasant visit, especially for the authenticity of the exhibits. I liked the fact that they weren't copies and that you could admire every single one of his writings in person. The rest of downtown Vigevano is also worth a visit, and some features are worth a visit. (Original) Visita molto piacevole, soprattutto per la veridicità delle esposizioni. Mi è piaciuto il fatto che non fossero copie e si potesse ammirare dal vivo ogni suo scritto. Anche il resto di Vigevano centro è meritevole ed alcune caratteristiche sono degne di visita.

Food was great, the service was very slow

Too bad the desserts are not particularly good and have a taste very close to the packaged ones, despite being perfectly presented. Average prices. Staff helpful and very courteous.

(Translated by Google) Small restaurant near the castle of Vigevano, we went there on the recommendation of a museum operator.

(Original) Piccolo ristorante nelle vicinanze del castello di Vigevano, ci siamo stati su consiglio di un’operatrice del museo.

We had lunch at this restaurant, our group was quite a chaos but the staff was super friendly. We had such a welcoming service and where happy to stay there and to get some food after a long day on the river. Greetings from the boys and girls on the canoes. Ci vediamo 🛶🤙🏻

Nice evening with very tasty dishes. Waiter was very funny and prepared on gluten free dishes. Congratulations!

There are good fish base dishes and its own antipasti with fish is tasty, too.

Nice place for a pizza or a lovely grub

One of best Restaurant with authentic ingredients & Friendly Environment 🌹🌹🌹

Really nice restaurant with really good food. Made a stop on a business trip here. Everything fine!

🌟 If someone had told me in the morning that I would end the day in a fairytale — I wouldn’t have believed it. After 10 hours on the road, I arrived in a small Italian town, booked a hotel, and drove through narrow streets to find it. Eventually, I reached the Castagni complex — and that’s when the magic began. I was warmly welcomed by the incredibly kind and friendly hostess. She showed me my room (absolutely beautiful!), walked me through the garden, showed the pool, the restaurant… We agreed I’d come for dinner in the evening. And then — the evening came. I walked into the restaurant… And I couldn’t believe what I saw: the waitress didn’t just explain the menu — she sang it. And the hostess introduced each course like a scene from a culinary theatre. Each dish was a masterpiece of flavor and imagination. I don’t know who the chef is — but he’s a genius. Every bite was stunning. Each wine matched the dish in perfect harmony. You can feel the soul they’ve put into everything. You’re not just eating. You’re experiencing. You’re awakening. Even if you’re alone — here, you never feel lonely. This place feels tuned to inner peace. You feel like someone is holding your hand, whispering: “You’re home.” And then came dessert. And then — a collection of Armagnac, starting from 1945… I chose the 1947. 45 euros — that’s not a price. That’s the taste of time. The energy of post-war Europe, captured in a crystal glass. It doesn’t burn — it unfolds. It speaks to you. And suddenly, you understand something deeper about yourself and life. 💫 If you’re ever nearby — don’t miss it. One evening here can truly change you. The money? Not an expense. It’s an investment in a moment you’ll carry with you forever. And if someone asks: — How much does peace of mind cost? You’ll know: — I found it in Castagni. And I’ll be back.

We went to celebrate a birthday. On a Thursday evening, we were the only guests dining. We got the best table looking into the private garden. Service was very attentive. We ordered the "Menu degustazione", we loved the beef Carpaccio, the risotto, and the Burgundy Premier Cru which paired quite well with all the food coming.

I have been three times, in the last 6/7 years, to this restaurant of my native town, and I really appreciate its refined, but never pretentious, cuisine. I chose a menu "all fish" this time, made of five courses, and everthing was excellent: I especially liked the delicious appetizer "fried shrimps and squids". The previous times I had chosen some typical menus of the Lomellina zone, composed mainly of goose or pork meat, with the same good results in taste; besides, consider that the quantity of food in the plate is enough for the reasonably glutton customer. Good job as always, Enrico!

(Translated by Google) The rating refers to the restaurant. A well-established excellence. There are tasting menus, but we chose the à la carte menu. An appetizer featuring shrimp in filo pastry paired with fried calamari and sautéed risotto. Tasty, balanced...very much appreciated. I continued with gnocchi, and my wife with a grilled sea bass fillet. Everything was delicious. We finished with an incredible apple dessert that took 20 minutes to prepare. It was definitely worth the wait. The price was reasonable for the quality. Easy parking. Dog friendly. Amex welcome. (Original) La valutazione si riferisce al ristorante. Una consolidata eccellenza. Ci sono menù degustazione, noi abbiamo però scelto la carta. Un antipasto dove gamberi in pasta filo vengono abbinati a calamari fritti e risotto al salto. Sfizioso, equilibrato...apprezzatissimo. Io ho proseguito con degli gnocchi, mia moglie con u filetto di branzino alla piastra. Tutto gradevole. Abbiamo poi chiuso con un dolce alle mele pazzesco che chiede 20 minuti di preparazione. Vale assolutamente l'attesa. Conto proporzionato alla qualità. Facilità di parcheggio. Dog friendly. Amex welcome.
