Its unique character stems from being perfectly divided into two distinct parts: <strong>Bergamo Bassa<\/strong> (the modern, commercial lower town) and <strong>Bergamo Alta<\/strong> (the historic, walled upper town), which rests proudly on a hill. It is in this ancient, elevated heart\u2014the Citt\u00e0 Alta\u2014that you find the <strong>Campanone<\/strong>, an iconic tower offering the key to truly understanding the stunning, two-sided beauty of this Italian gem.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-campanone-civic-tower-bergamos-single-most-unforgettable-thing-to-do\"><strong>The Campanone (Civic Tower): Bergamo\u2019s Single Most Unforgettable Thing To Do<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Campanone<\/strong>, or Civic Tower, is the majestic, unrivaled centerpiece of Piazza Vecchia, the central square of Bergamo Alta\u2019s historic center. As the tallest structure in the square, it\u2019s something you always notice, yet for many\u2014even the locals\u2014it remains an iconic, but often unvisited, landmark. This is common: when you live in a beautiful place, you often <strong>take its greatest sights for granted<\/strong>. In fact, we had a Bergamo local with us who experienced the top for the very first time! This makes the Campanone one of the city&#8217;s true <strong>hidden gems<\/strong> and an experience we strongly recommend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ticket grants access to the adjacent <strong>Palazzo del Podest\u00e0<\/strong> museum, which offers deep historical insights. This information proved invaluable: when friends later asked me about the construction date of the city walls, I was prepared to answer\u2014not because I have a history degree, but simply because I had visited the museum, unlike someone who lives in the area! <strong>This demonstrates how the museum is a useful and accessible tool for everyone to understand the city.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At <strong>52.76 meters (173 feet)<\/strong>, the ascent unlocks a profound <strong>360\u00b0 panorama<\/strong> that, combined with the museum&#8217;s lessons, gives you a complete spatial and historical understanding of the two-sided city. This knowledge will help you <strong>understand the city better<\/strong> when you later walk through the streets and along the Venetian Walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-campanone-civic-tower-facts-history-and-logistics\"><strong>The Campanone (Civic Tower): Facts, History, and Logistics<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Campanone: Explore the Civic Tower&#8217;s Story, Significance, and Visitor Tips<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-question-1761044144170\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">What is the significance of the Campanone bell in Bergamo&#8217;s Citt\u00e0 Alta?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/tripilare.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/bergamo-civic-tower-campanone-big-bell-10pm-chimes-inside-150x150.jpg\" class=\"alignright\" alt=\"Close-up view of the massive Campanone bell and structural framework inside Bergamo&#039;s historic Civic Tower, known for the 10 PM chimes tradition.\" title=\"\">\n<p>The Campanone, or Big Bell, is the largest bell in the Civic Tower (52.76m tall).

Historically, it marked the life of Bergamo&#8217;s citizens, signaling council meetings, happy events, and difficult times.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The 10:00 PM Tradition:<\/strong> Crucially, the bell served as an evening warning that the city gates were closing. This tradition persists: even today, the bell rings every evening at <strong>10:00 PM<\/strong>. The duration and intensity of the chime are unique at this hour, a loud reminder of its ancient protective function. The sound is audible throughout the Upper Town, especially from the Old Square. Not at the top of the tower because at that time the tower is closed and 100 rings next to you makes you definitely deaf.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-practical-details-and-ticket-information-expertise\">2.

It was 6:04 PM, and with the last entry to the tower around 6:30 PM, the race to see the sunset was on<sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-timing-challenge-chasing-the-sunset-view\">The Timing Challenge: Chasing the Sunset View<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We quickly arrived in <strong>Piazza Vecchia<\/strong>. It was 6:04 PM<sup><\/sup>, and we had a choice to make. We were told we were right at the moment of museum closing and that the <strong>last entry time for the Tower was 6:30 PM<\/strong><sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We knew we had to move fast because the weather forecast predicted a sunset<sup><\/sup>. Given that this was a special occasion for our friends, we decided to give them a rapid tour of the Palazzo museum first, so they could get an idea of the building, and then rush to the top for the final ascent time<sup><\/sup>. <strong>Our time pressure was real!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"piazza-vecchia-warmed-by-history-and-firelight\">Piazza Vecchia: Warmed by History and Firelight<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The atmosphere in Piazza Vecchia was already magnificent. The square, which was historically central to the life of the Bergamaschi\u2014where power, religion, and commerce have always interacted\u2014is truly a magical sight, whether by day or night<sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The atmosphere was made even more welcoming by the surrounding bars and restaurants. Although the sun had set and it was getting dark and cooler, the air was <strong>warmed by scenic heaters<\/strong> (the <em>scaldotti<\/em> with fire inside)<sup><\/sup>. These heaters allow people to sit outside and enjoy the ancient beauty of the place, but they are also <strong>scenographic<\/strong>, adding charm and heat to the square<sup><\/sup>. We noted the beautiful arcades (porticoes) and the ancient white palazzo, a <strong>truly beautiful and fascinating<\/strong> sight<sup><\/sup>. The piazza is surely romantic, and we even spotted a cute detail: a restaurant that had set two giant plush toys at an outdoor table for a very romantic dinner<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also spotted the famous curiosity next to Bar Tasso: the incredibly narrow palazzo. While we were told it was the &#8220;narrowest in Europe&#8221; , subsequent checks revealed this is a popular local jest; it is not the narrowest in Europe but a popular local curiosity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-campanone-ascent-pride-vs-pleasure\">The Campanone Ascent: Pride vs. Pleasure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Civic Tower<\/strong>, locally known as the <strong>Campanone<\/strong>, is the city&#8217;s tallest building. The combined ticket for the ascent and the cultural experience at the Palazzo del Podest\u00e0 is now <strong>\u20ac8<\/strong> (\u20ac6 reduced)<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We had climbed the Campanone before and loved it <sup><\/sup>, so bringing our friends was a perfect excuse to return and share the experience<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Ascent Choice and Our Friends&#8217; Reactions:<\/strong> You can choose to go up the tower using the <strong>stairs<\/strong> or the <strong>elevator<\/strong><sup><\/sup>. The elevator is free, comfortable<sup><\/sup>, and takes you almost to the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Many people, particularly younger ones, choose the stairs <strong>out of pride<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The elevator is a great option for those who struggle with mobility, allowing them to reach a high point and already see a great panorama.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We kept a mindful eye on our friend who was &#8220;a bit more elderly&#8221; (<em>un po&#8217; pi\u00f9 attempato<\/em>) to see how he handled the climb.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the end, those of us who chose the elevator were <strong>truly happy<\/strong> (<em>veramente contenti<\/em>) when we saw how much distance the lift had covered compared to the stairs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To reach the absolute summit and the best panorama, you must climb a short final stretch of <strong>narrow, irregular stairs<\/strong><sup><\/sup>. There is a handrail, so you can climb slowly<sup><\/sup>. You definitely need to wear comfortable, practical shoes for this part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-view-enchanted-by-the-night-lights\">The View: Enchanted by the Night Lights<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We made it up right on time! Although the weather wasn&#8217;t perfectly clear\u2014there was some fog and not the crisp sunset we\u2019d had last time\u2014the view was still incredibly <strong>fascinating and beautiful<\/strong><sup><\/sup>. The sight of the monuments below starting to illuminate and the streets and palaces twinkling with light made for a captivating urban panorama<sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup>. Even in imperfect weather conditions, the sight is truly beautiful and charming<sup><\/sup>. Everyone immediately pulled out their phones to take photos<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the top, you stand next to the massive <strong>Campanone bell<\/strong>. We told them the true story: the Campanone rings its famous <strong>one hundred chimes every night at 10:00 PM<\/strong> to commemorate the ancient tradition of closing the city gates, which warned everyone outside to run inside before it was too late<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the campanone rings during the day to mark the time, it rings 100 times at 10 pm to commemorate the old tradition. Of course, you can&#8217;t listen to the 100 rings from the top of the tower because they are too loud and the tower is closed, but you can listen to them in all Bergamo Alta, and the best place is Piazza Vecchia, because you can listen to them well, and you can also look at the tower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"palazzo-del-podesta-history-and-warmth\">Palazzo del Podest\u00e0: History and Warmth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We had just enough time to quickly show our friends the <strong>Palazzo del Podest\u00e0<\/strong>, which the ticket includes. The museum is highly interactive with videos and panels<sup><\/sup>. We learned a key historical fact: in the 16th century, the Venetian Republic (the <strong>Serenissima<\/strong>) was forced to fortify Bergamo, which led to the painful demolition of hundreds of buildings and the symbol of Bergamasque Christianity, the Basilica of Sant&#8217;Alessandro<sup><\/sup>. <strong>Practical note:<\/strong> There is a restroom inside the museum if needed<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the museum visit is included in the ticket, we made a quick, ten-minute whirlwind tour of the <strong>Palazzo del Podest\u00e0<\/strong> to give our friends an idea of the history. The museum is highly interactive with videos and panels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We learned a key historical fact: beginning in 1561, the Venetian Republic (the <strong>Serenissima<\/strong>) had to fortify the city against attacks. This is why the famous Walls exist, but it required the demolition and expropriation of hundreds of houses and churches, including the Basilica of Sant&#8217;Alessandro, the symbol of Bergamasque Christianity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ascending-the-tower-practicalities-and-emotion\">Ascending the Tower: Practicalities and Emotion<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>To get up, you have two options: the <strong>stairs<\/strong> or the <strong>elevator<\/strong><sup><\/sup>. The elevator is comfortable and takes you most of the way up, which is a great option for those with reduced mobility<sup><\/sup>. However, to reach the absolute top, you must climb a short stretch of <strong>narrow, irregular stairs<\/strong><sup><\/sup>. We recommend comfortable shoes for this final climb!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The view, even on a slightly foggy day, was absolutely fascinating<sup><\/sup>. You see the streets beginning to light up below and the lights on the buildings switching on<sup><\/sup>. We noted that even when the weather isn&#8217;t perfect, the view is lovely and captivating, with a 360\u00b0 panorama over the monuments, the Pre-Alps, and the Lombardy Plain<sup><\/sup>. It\u2019s truly one of the most beautiful things to do in Bergamo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the top, you stand next to the great bell. We told our friends the true story: the Campanone rings its famous <strong>one hundred chimes every night at 10:00 PM<\/strong> to commemorate the ancient tradition of closing the city gates, which warned everyone outside to run back into the safety of the city before it was too late<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-magical-descent-through-arcades-and-along-the-walls\">The Magical Descent: Through Arcades and Along the Walls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We descended with the elevator while some friends took the stairs<sup><\/sup>. Stepping back into Piazza Vecchia, it was fully illuminated, and the magic was complete<sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup>. We lingered to look at the two very particular and elaborate churches behind the Piazza Vecchia<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leaving the Piazza, we drifted toward <strong>Via Bartolomeo Colleoni<\/strong><sup><\/sup>. As we walked, we were tempted by fantastic window displays showing local sweets, pizza, and focaccia<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"577\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/tripilare.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/bergamo-alta-street-food-pizza-focaccia-window-577x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Street view of a vibrant window display in Bergamo Alta featuring slices of Italian pizza, focaccia, and seasonal decorated Halloween cookies priced at 2.50 Euros.\" class=\"wp-image-20367\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tripilare.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/bergamo-alta-street-food-pizza-focaccia-window-577x1024.jpg 577w, https:\/\/tripilare.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/bergamo-alta-street-food-pizza-focaccia-window-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/tripilare.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/bergamo-alta-street-food-pizza-focaccia-window-768x1364.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tripilare.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/bergamo-alta-street-food-pizza-focaccia-window-865x1536.jpg 865w, https:\/\/tripilare.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/bergamo-alta-street-food-pizza-focaccia-window-1153x2048.jpg 1153w, https:\/\/tripilare.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/bergamo-alta-street-food-pizza-focaccia-window-scaled.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 577px) 100vw, 577px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">After descending from the Campanone, the streets of Citt\u00e0 Alta, like Via Bartolomeo Colleoni, offer delicious Italian delights!

A little further, we entered <strong>Piazza della Cittadella<\/strong>, which is beautiful and illuminated<sup><\/sup>.
