A cosy provincial town situated bang in the middle of the Po plain, Cremona is known for its violins. Ever since Andrea Amati established the first violin workshop here in 1566, and his son Nicolo and pupils Stradivari and Guarneri continued and expanded the industry, Cremona has been a focus for the instrument, attracting both tourists and musicians worldwide. Today around a hundred violin makers maintain the tradition started by the Amati family: there's an internationally famous school of violin making here, and there are frequent classical concerts, as well as a string festival held every third October.
