  We study the thermodynamic geometry of the Quark-Meson model, focusing on the
curvature, $R$, around the chiral crossover at finite temperature and baryon
chemical potential. We find a peculiar behavior of $R$ in the crossover region,
in which the sign changes and a local maximum develops; in particular, the
height of the peak of $R$ in the crossover region becomes large in proximity of
the critical endpoint and diverges at the critical endpoint. The appearance of
a pronounced peak of $R$ close to the critical endpoint supports the idea that
$R$ grows with the correlation volume around the phase transition. We also
analyze the mixed fluctuations of energy and baryon number, $\langle\Delta
U\Delta N\rangle$, which grow up substantially in proximity of the critical
endpoint: in the language of thermodynamic geometry these fluctuations are
responsible for the vanishing of the determinant of the metric, which results
in thermodynamic instability and are thus related to the appearance of the
second order phase transition at the critical endpoint.
