Bressana Bottarone

Bressana Bottarone (Barsàna Butaron in Oltrepò Pavese dialect) is an Italian municipality with 3,552 inhabitants in the province of Pavia, Lombardy. It is located in the plain of Oltrepò Pavese, on the right bank of the Po River, near the confluence with the Coppa stream.
It borders to the north with Cava Manara and Bastida Pancarana, to the east with Rea, Verrua Po, Pinarolo Po, and Robecco Pavese, and to the south with Casatisma and Castelletto di Branduzzo.
The municipality is made up of three residential areas: Bressana, Argine, and Bottarone.

In 1937, the Town Hall was built, providing a scenic backdrop to the long square, which has recently been renovated, transforming it into a pedestrian zone and a lively gathering point for the entire community.

Along the Po River embankment, there is the locality of Cascina Bella, a group of farmhouses that until the 1950s were the center of the agricultural economy of the village.

Bressana Bottarone is a very active municipality in terms of cultural, social, and community initiatives. It boasts a Public Library with multi-purpose spaces for adults and a youth room, containing approximately 7,000 volumes.
