Barbarossa ordered the construction of a new city on the right bank of the Adda in 1158, after his forces levelled the original settlement of Laus Pompeia five kilometres to the west. That refounding gave Lodi its medieval street grid, still readable today in the layout radiating from Piazza della Vittoria - one of the finest arcaded squares in Lombardy. The city has roughly 40,767 inhabitants and serves as capital of the Province of Lodi, a flat agricultural territory stretching between Milan and Cremona across the Pianura Padana.
Dairy production dominates the provincial economy. The Consorzio Tutela Grana Padano has deep roots here, and numerous caseifici operate in the surrounding countryside. Lodi's Duomo, begun in 1160 and among the first buildings erected in the new city, stands at the northern edge of the central piazza. The Tempio Civico dell'Incoronata, a Renaissance octagonal church completed in 1487, contains gilt interiors and frescoes by Bergognone.
