Caption: The Villaggio Crespi d'Adda (Near Bergamo - Italy) is an entire #town, built from nothing by the owner of the #factory for his workers and their families. The workers were provided with homes, gardens, vegetable gardens and all necessary local services.
An "extraordinary example of the phenomenon of the worker's villages, the most complete and best preserved of south Europe."

It is characterised by the Crespi chapel - a decorated tower-pyramid of exotic taste and is the #tomb of the Crespi family. The #monument rises to embrace the workers' graves: small crosses disposed in order in the meadow.
