Piadena (Italian pronunciation: [ˈpjaːdena]; Eastern Lombard: [ˈpjadenɔ]) is a former comune in the Province of Cremona, Italy. On January 1, 2019 it merged with Drizzona to form Piadena Drizzona.[3]

It is approximately 30 kilometers east of Cremona; in addition to Cremona, Piadena is nearly equidistant from Parma (about 40 kilometers), Brescia (about 50 kilometers), and Mantua (about 35 kilometers), and this geographic position has made the town an important center of reference for the small towns in its surroundings. The territory is located on the right bank of the Oglio River in the plain north of Casalmaggiore.

Piadena is also a major railway junction. Its station is located at the crossroads of the railroads Brescia-Parma and Cremona-Mantua. State Road 10 Padana Inferiore runs through the town from west to east, and State Road 343 Asolana runs from north to south. The local economy is primarily dependent on agriculture, with minor industry, food, and metallurgy also present.
