Crespi d'Adda
Savor the history of Crespi d'Adda, a World Heritage-listed "company town" that is still functioning--although its future is unclear. Company towns were developed in the 19th and 20th centuries in North America and Europe to satisfy the needs of industrial workers--nearly all jobs and facilities were provided by a singular company.

Work out when and for how long to visit Crespi d'Adda and other Capriate San Gervasio attractions using our handy Capriate San Gervasio road trip planner.
