What is "treviglio"

Treviglio (, Eastern Lombard: Treì) is a town and comune in the province of Bergamo, in Lombardy, northern Italy. It lies south of the capital city, in the lower territory called "Gera d'Adda" , marked by the Adda and the Serio rivers.

With approximately 30,000 inhabitants, the comune is now the second most populous town in the province. It is also called "The tractor town" for the presence of the SAME Deutz-Fahr headquarters.

The town is divided in five main quarters: Old town, West zone, North zone, the recent built East zone and the PIP (Industrial Zone). On the northern side lies four frazioni: Geromina, Castel Cerreto, Battaglie and Pezzoli. Once the village of Castel Rozzone also was a frazione of Treviglio.

The coat of arms is composed by a crenellated tower, representing the city with its ghibelline past, flanked by two golden lions, representing the free and valorous citizens, topped by an eagle, symbol of the privileges obtained by the Holy Roman Empire, laying a pig, as symbol of the prosperity achieved.
