Scuole di Crespi d'Adda

Nestled in the Lombardy Region of Italy, the industrial village of Crespi d'Adda provides a unique glimpse into the country's rich heritage. The Scuole di Crespi d'Adda, located in the center of the village, is a complex of five buildings which was originally used to house the school and the orphanage workers employed by the factory in the Crespi d'Adda. This striking, yet eerie, architectural example is one of the finest in Italy, portraying a much-needed reprieve after a long day of labor. Although it is no longer used for teaching, it is still a stunning sight, with red-tiled roofs and round archways draped in oak and chestnut trees. The site also offers visitors an insight into the unique development of the town, with a lively courtyard and a number of interesting street sculptures, which can be found near the school. Whether as part of a guided tour or as a peaceful stroll, a visit to the Scuole di Crespi d'Adda is sure to provide an unforgettable experience.
