Known for its industrial prowess in metallurgy and mechanical engineering, Brescia houses prominent companies like A2A, OMR, Lucchini, and Beretta. However, it's not all work and no play — Brescia is also famous for the Mille Miglia classic car race, its production of Franciacorta sparkling wine and Italian caviar, and its rich cultural history symbolised by its nickname, "Leonessa d'Italia" or "The Lioness of Italy".

From being a Roman city involved in the Carthaginian Wars to standing against Austrian rule in 1848 and 1849, Brescia's history is a rich tapestry of cultural influences and resilience. Its robust musical history, evinced in its tradition of string players and instrument makers, adds another charming layer to the city's vibrant past.
