Province of Parma

The Province of Parma extends across plains and hills, containing 44 municipalities with the city of Parma serving as its administrative center.

The territory became an important Roman settlement in 183 BC, developing into a strategic location along the Via Aemilia trading route.

The region maintains traditional production methods for Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and Prosciutto di Parma in specially certified facilities across the province.

The province connects to major Italian cities through the Milan-Bologna railway line and the A1 motorway, offering efficient transportation options.

The territory includes the Tosco-Emiliano Apennines National Park, where visitors can observe rare species of flora in their natural mountain habitat.
