The formidable fortress was built on a spur of red jasper, in a dominant position on the confluence of the Noveglia stream with the Ceno. Its origin is to be placed between the ninth and tenth centuries, when the bishop Everardo of Piacenza bought half of the rocky outcrop on which a first fortification stands. The place was to serve as a shelter against the raids of the Hungarians. The Lombards had already built military garrisons there during the struggles against the Byzantines for the control of the Apennine passes. The primitive construction expanded with the passage of time, until in the 16th century the Landi, a family of Piacenza origins, deprived of their residence in Piacenza, transformed it into a noble residence of the Landi State, all of their possessions, which resisted the supremacy of the Duke of Parma. With the extinction of the Landi dynasty, the fortress and the territory were purchased by the Farnese dukes of Parma. The castle thus becomes peripheral within the Duchy and its importance as a control point for crossings and trade is also lost. With the Unification it was used as a military prison, and was sold to the Municipality of Bardi in 1868. Adults €5.50; groups (minimum 20 people) €5; reduced €4.50; children 6/14 years €3.

• Church of San Francesco. The purchase of the land for the construction of a palatine chapel, right at the foot of the Rocca, in 1571 is due to the wife of Claudio II Landi; the intent was to create a palace oratory, a pantheon for the family and a hospital. The work was completed in 1589, and was consecrated by the Bishop of Piacenza. Princely appointed chaplains ruled the church. Claudius II and his wife Giovanna Hernandez of Cordoba and Aragon were buried there. At the beginning of the 17th century Federico Landi planned an extension of the building with apse and side chapels, as well as the construction of a convent, to house the Franciscan Friars Minor. Recovery and restoration works carried out in the 20th century after some burials were found under the apse area and along the east perimeter wall, in rectangular ossuaries with a barrel vault, and in a wooden box along the east side. From the surveys it seems that the only surviving structure of the previous construction is a part of the wall on the south-east side, where a child burial was found. Since the restoration the church has veen used for artistic events, exhibitions, exhibitions, and concerts. 
• Parish Church of Our Lady of Sorrows. The façade is inspired by the neo-Romanesque style, with a gable roof and side wings highlighted by brick pilasters. The upper part is enlivened by five arches with paired columns that surmount the large portal with a round arch. The building has the classic east-west orientation, with an entrance to the west and an apse to the east. The current construction is probably the result of the enlargement of an existing church dedicated to the Beata Vergine della Consolazione, which was rebuilt to provide the monastery complex of the Servites with a convent church. annexed to the adjacent monastery. The Order of the Servites was then suppressed in 1805 in the Napoleonic era; the church remained open, and the convent was given to the Municipality of Bardi who placed the public schools and the Command of the Dragons there. Finally, in 1844 the convent became a girls' school for the Benedictine nuns. The function of parish church was attributed to it at the end of the 19th century and in the following century it was completely rebuilt; it was consecrated in 1934. The interior responds to the criteria of the basilica style, with three naves with cross vaults and ribs, a semicircular apse, round arches that divide the side aisles. The church houses two precious paintings. The Marriage of Santa Caterina is the work of Francesco Mazzola known as Parmigianino (Parma 1503 - Casalmaggiore 1540), who painted it at the age of 18 while he was staying with relatives in Viadana. It is believed that the work may have arrived here through the Servites also present in Viadana. The fulcrum of the representation is the trunk of the column on which the Madonna is seated with the Child Jesus in her arm; on the right San Giovanni Battista, on the left San Giovanni Evangelista; Saint Catherine of Alexandria holds out her hand to Jesus to receive the wedding ring of the mystical marriage. In the lower part of the picture the palm and the toothed wheel are depicted, symbols of martyrdom. The other important work is the Bust of the Virgin by Francesco Nuvolone known as Panfilo, a 17th-century painter from Cremona. 

• Church of San Giovanni Battista. The church's foundation time is believed to be the 16th century. It was consecrated in 1589, and was subjected in the following centuries to various restoration and reconstruction interventions. The bell tower was also rebuilt in 1830. The façade is in good perspective on one side of the town's main square. Six trabeated pilasters divide and enliven the lower part of the facade. As many pilasters branch off from the string course to reach the upper part with a salient undulation that ends from the sides in the central hut-like part, supporting a statue, as well as each of the two pairs of lateral pilasters. The building has a north-south orientation. The side elevations are in exposed stones, as well as the bell tower behind the apse. The belfry has round arch openings with trabeated pilasters. The interior has a single nave with three chapels. (updated Jul 2021)
