WHAT TO SEE

Novara and province

Novara

It is 18 kilometers from the Old Farm, which is immersed in its province. Easily accessible by car or by bus directly from the center of Vaprio d'Agogna.

The itinerary to discover the architectural beauties leads into the countryside where, isolated in the green, there are orators of great artistic value, ancient castles and medieval abbeys. From the small villages to the plain dominated by farmhouses and rice paddies, to the lakes: thanks to its multifaceted aspects Novara reveals itself as a land full of suggestions that never ceases to surprise visitors.

Basilica of San Gaudenzio

Novara is dominated by the Antonellian dome of the Basilica of San Gaudenzio. Its historical center harmoniously blends medieval foreshortenings, fifteenth-century palazzetti and neoclassical constructions in a very suggestive whole.

Among the valuable architectures stand out the Cathedral, the Baptistery and the monumental complex of the Broletto which houses the Civic Museum, rich in archaeological finds and testimonies of history and local art.
