About Lodi (Lombardy)

It is the capital of the vast Lodigiano area, a flat territory in the lower Po area of Lombardy. The territory of Lodi is located in the central-southern part of Lombardy, in the area known as the "lower plain". The oldest part of the city stands on the Eghezzone hill, an approximately trapezoidal hill located on the right bank of the Adda river. The municipal territory is crossed by the Adda and numerous other waterways. Lodi's origins lie in the destruction of Laus Pompeia, born as a Roman municipium and later a flourishing medieval village, razed to the ground by the Milanese in 1111. The city was refounded by Emperor Frederick I several kilometers from the original site and from then until Renaissance experienced a long period of prosperity.
