PARMA: FROM ITS ORIGINS UNTIL TODAY

Conquered in the 2nd century B.C. by the Roman Empire, Parma became one of the most important places of this period. In the 9th century, Charlemagne and the bishop of the city came to an agreement in which the bishop was in charge of the city. Throughout its history, Parma has been under the rule of the French, Spanish, Farnese, Bourbons and the Pope Paul III. In the 20th century, it was awarded with the Gold Medal for Military Valor, as the whole city fought against the Nazis and helped the Allies reconquer the territory. Currently, Parma is one of the best places you can visit all over Italy, not only for its history, but also for its environment, its people and its culture.
