Bergamo Walks

Bergamo is a lovely medieval town nestled at the foot of the Alps. The town’s peculiar setting comprises an old walled center, known as Città Alta (upper town), and a modern expansion known as Città Bassa (lower town). The tour will focus on the old town, where a guide will walk you through the splendid medieval buildings and cobbled streets that punctuate it. Major sights include Piazza Vecchia, the city’s ancient political and economic hub, Palazzo della Ragione, the oldest municipal seat in Lombardy. You will learn about the curious tradition that sees the civic tower toll 100 times at 10PM to remind citizens of the ancient curfew, and will marvel at the majesty of Bergamo’s Cathedral.
