Correggio, Medieval commune in Province of Reggio Emilia, Italy
The streets of Correggio feature porticoes made of Verona marble, running along the central Corso Mazzini through the historic district.
From 1009 to 1635, Correggio functioned as an independent lordship until its annexation by the Duchy of Modena following accusations of currency counterfeiting.
The Palazzo Principi, constructed in 1507, houses the Museo Civico displaying local artifacts and artworks from different historical periods.
Every Wednesday, the city center transforms into a market where visitors and residents gather to purchase local products and fresh produce.
The town's name derives from the Latin word 'corrigia', meaning leather strip, connected to a medieval legend about an ancestor saved by Madonna.
