10 Things to do Good for Kids in Parma That You Shouldn't Miss

September 3, 2021 Christa Meece

Best known for its incredibly edible contributions to world gastronomy (especially parmigiano cheese and Parma ham), Parma has also been revered by opera lovers (who flock to its Teatro Regio) since the days of Verdi, who was born in nearby Roncole. Parma’s many historic sights include the 11th-century cathedral and its baptistry. Begun in the 12th century, it's considered one of medieval Europe’s most important buildings for its straddling of the Romanesque and Gothic architecture periods.

Teatro Farnese

Splendida ricostruzione di teatro farnesiano nel palazzo della pilotta

Reviewed By whitefish8

Great to visit this amazing theatre with very few people (there were two others when we visited). The Fornastetti plates sitting in seats was a great idea. This theatre is early 17th C and you can see all the ancient beams as you walk behind. Really kool.

Caseificio San Pier Damiani

Cheese factory producing handcrafted Parmesan cheese since 1965. Opportunity to visit the factory and to attend at milk transformation from the curd to the round of Parmesan cheese. Tasting point.

Reviewed By stephanief870

We had a wonderful tour with Roberta this morning. She was lovely and enthusiastic about the traditional Parmigiano Reggiano cheese-making process. The tour held the attention of all three kids (11-17) and us parents too. The visit was easy to coordinate and the drive there was beautiful as well. 5 stars!

Agricola Giansanti

Have you ever dreamt of seeing a true barn and all the Parmigiano cheese making? Well, just outside Parma city-centre, on the road leading to the hills of Traversetolo, since 1950 we are hand-crafting Parmigiano Reggiano cheese everyday, from raw material (the milk of our cows) to the Parmigiano cheese. We are the only company in Parma, where you can see in the same place the farm and the cheese factory in the same time! Our Parmigiano Reggiano is so unique that we have won a lot of international prizes, such as the 2014 World Cheese Award and the 2016 Alma Caseus Gold Medal... Come and enjoy an English speaking guide and cheese tasting in our factory!
