AI overview
I don't have enough context to write an accurate overview of Vigevano. The only information provided is a reference to a map of a city centre, which doesn't tell me what Vigevano is, where it's located, or why it might be historically or culturally significant. I cannot fulfill this request without inventing facts, which you've asked me not to do.

Vigevano (; ) is a (municipality) in the province of Pavia, in the Italian region of Lombardy. A historic art town, it is also renowned for shoemaking and is one of the main centres of Lomellina, a rice-growing agricultural district. Vigevano received the honorary title of city with a decree of Duke Francis II Sforza on 2 February 1532. It is famed for its Renaissance in the centre of the town. It is also known for the Rassegna Litteraria di Vigevano (Literary Review of Vigevano), an annual cultural event celebrating literature and the arts, which honours two distinguished personalities from the world of culture every year with the National Prize and the International Career Prize.
