Zibello, now part of the new municipality of Polesine Zibello, is a small Italian village located in the Po Valley in Emilia-Romagna.
This characteristic locality, immersed in the quiet countryside, has adhered to the Cittaslow philosophy, presenting itself as an example of slow and sustainable tourism. Zibello's history dates back to antiquity, as evidenced by the Parish Church of San Pietro and the Oratory of Sant'Antonio. The town is famous for the production of Culatello di Zibello DOP, a prized Italian cured meat that is recognised worldwide.
The annual ‘November Porc’, an event dedicated to the pig and its delicious cured meats, attracts visitors from all over Italy. Tourists can appreciate the typical Po Valley landscape, dotted with old houses, narrow alleys and trattorias where they can enjoy the excellent local cuisine.
If you extend your visit to the vicinity of Zibello, you can discover the enchantment of the Terre Verdiane, the places that inspired the composer Giuseppe Verdi, a native of these lands.
