Basilica di San Pietro in Ciel d'Oro

ChiesaGemma nascostaBasilica di San Pietro in Ciel d'OroTomb of Saint Augustine, 14th-century marble Arca, crypt of Boethius, Romanesque brickworkThis Romanesque brick basilica in Pavia holds the tomb of Saint Augustine. King Liutprand of the Lombards had the relics brought from Sardinia in the early eighth century, and he built the church to house them. Above the altar stands the Arca of Saint Augustine, a fourteenth-century marble shrine carved with more than 150 statues and reliefs. In the crypt lies Boethius, the philosopher executed in 525, whom Dante places among the wise souls in Paradise as living at ‘Cieldauro’, the church’s golden ceiling. Napoleonic suppression left the basilica in ruin; Angelo Savoldi restored it between 1875 and 1896, and it reopened on 15 June 1896. Augustinian friars care for it today.Pianifica la visita

PontePonte CopertoCovered bridge over the Ticino, 18th-century chapel at midspan, 1951 postwar reconstruction, Borgo Ticino linkPavia's covered bridge carries pedestrians across the Ticino under a long tiled roof, with a small eighteenth-century chapel to San Giovanni Nepomuceno set into the middle span exactly as the medieval builders intended. The first roofed bridge here went up between 1351 and 1354, on the piers of an older Roman crossing, after Galeazzo II Visconti decided the city needed a covered link to the fishing quarter of Borgo Ticino across the river. Allied bombing brought that bridge down in 1944, and the version standing today is a careful 1951 reconstruction, built a short distance from the original site with five arches instead of the medieval seven. Pavians still use it the way their ancestors did, as the natural route for an evening walk toward Borgo Ticino's trattorias, and the roof makes it one of the few bridges in Italy where a rainy crossing barely counts as bad weather.
