Crespi d'Adda Houses

 The Crespi cemetery is also quite impressive, but I couldn't get any postcards from it. In fact, I was lucky to have found postcards because at the tourist office they told me that I wouldn't find any postcards, but when I was going back to the car I found a house selling these nice cards!




Crespi d'Adda Castle

 The castle couldn´t be visited




Crespi d'Adda, Factory

 Unfortunately, at the time,  the factory was closed




Crespi d'Adda, Factory

 We rent two bikes and we visited the village in less than an hour.




Crespi d'Adda, Factory

 The main reason to stop here was to buy postcards, since I didn't have any of this UNESCO site, but I enjoyed more than I was expecting
