BO RRO MEO ISLAND S Central Lago
Incontrovertibly the heart of Lago Maggiore and a place of art “par excellence”: Isola Bella,
Isola Madre and Isola dei Pescatori. Situated in the Gulf of Borromeo, all three of them have
fascinated people throughout history: with the art and culture of a great ruling dynasty: the
Borromeo family. There are so many attractions for the visitor to wonder at: grandiose terraced gardens with palazzo, an authentic fishing village with picturesque houses, one of the
most spectacular botanic gardens anywhere in the world with many exotic plants – and so
much more.
V illa Taranto Verbania-Pallanza
A villa built in the 1830s by a Scot, Captain Neil McEacharn, and in the meantime one of the
richest botanical gardens in the world. With thousands of plant species – eucalyptus, azalea,
rhododendron, magnolia, maple, camellia and dahlia, it stretches over an area measuring 16
hectares.
The Gardens of Villa Taranto
Parc o Nazionale Val Grande Ossola Valleys
This national park situated between the Val d'Ossola, the Val Vigezzo and Lago Maggiore
measures 15,000 hectars and is noted as the largest integrated natural wild reserve in Italy;
here nature has been preserved in all its primal wildness.

Ossola Valleys 20
The boundary between Italy and Switzerland runs along the ridge of this high mountain
with an altitude of 15,200 feet. It is the second highest mountain in the Alps, separating the
Gressoney Valley in the Valle d'Aosta from the Val Sesia. The highest mountain station in
Europe is situated here at 14,957 feet, the “Rifugio Margherita”.

This nature park at the Swiss border, dominated by the towering skyline of the Alpe Veglia
and Alpe Devero, is fascinating for its diversity of vegetation: with waterfalls, rivers, lakes, and
above all vast stretches of untouched countryside with the Cascata di Buscagna and the Lago
di Codelago; a thrilling experience, and not only for nature lovers.

The villa gardens extend over an area of more than 16 hectares and form the “balcony” of Lago
Maggiore. Visitors young and old can delight in its glorious world of plants and a zoological
garden with more than 40 species of animals from all over the world – white swans, rare
ducks, cranes, fallow deer and pheasants.
Castelli di Cannero Upper Lago
These ancient fortifications rise up out of the water between Cannobio and Cannero Riviera.
They were built between the twelfth and fourteenth centuries and are divided up onto two
islands. In their time, they served as a place of refuge for the feared robber baron family of the
Mazzarditi, before the Borromeo family put a stop to their games and usurped them of their
possessions.

Isola Bella
Four places of pilgrimage in the overall region of Lago Maggiore, the so-called “Sacri Monti”,
have been declared world heritage sites by the Unesco. Each “Sacro Monte” consists of several
chapels along the Way of the Cross; step by step they lead up the mountain into the natural
landscape, as if by reaching the top the pilgrim has come as close as possible to God.
Lake Orta
The monastery of Santa Caterina del Sasso is indubitably one of the most beautiful and popular sightseeing attractions on the Lombardian side of the lake. It lies between Arolo and Reno
on a rocky promontory above Lago Maggiore and is accessible by ship and by car. The monastery itself can be viewed best from the water, but when you climb down the many steps from
the car park above the monastery, you are rewarded with a breathtaking view onto the lake.

Ro c c a di Angera East Shore and Varese
The Rocca of Angera was built on the remains of a previous castle and inhabited in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries by the Visconti; it was extended and then acquired by the
Borromeo family, who still own it today. Fascinating art treasures can be seen inside the castle,
among them the frescoes of the Sala di Giustizia in the Visconti Wing.

S AN GAUD ENZIO D OME Novara
Novara's most important church is the Basilica di San Gaudenzio built in 1659 with architecture by Pellegrino Tibaldi. Its dome is 397 feet high, the city's landmark, heralding from afar the
approach to the city. It is also a work of Alessandro Antonelli (completed in 1888) and crowned
by a gilded figure of Christ. Inside, one of its most interesting features is the Scurolo, a kind of
ground-level crypt, holding the mortal remains of Novara's patron saint, St. Gaudenzio.

The upper Lago Maggiore is the northern part of the
lake extending towards Switzerland and stretching as
far as Cannobio, the last town on the Italian side. The
secret of this region's beauty lies in a breathtaking
contrast of lake and very steep mountains. The thickly
wooded mountains make a more dramatic impression
here than for instance the gentler hills of the southern
side of the lake. Travelling along the lakeside road 34
leading from the famous Simplon road all the way to
Switzerland, you pass several picturesque lakeside
townships that have taken shape between mountains
and the lake. The Malpaga castles, also called "The
Castles of Cannero", can be seen near Cannero Riviera.
These fascinating ruins situated on two tiny islets
visible from the lakeside are the landmarks of the upper
Lago Maggiore. Here we find miniature oases of tradition in the small villages built directly into the nearby
rocks of the mountains. They have remained almost
unchanged for centuries. The Valle Cannobina connects
the Val Vigezzo with Lago Maggiore and offers many
options for excursions and rambling.

Cannero Riviera was built on an alluvial promontory on the small river Rio di Cannero. Because
of its extremely mild climate the town was given the additional name of “Riviera”; lemons,
oranges, olives, Bougainvillaea and even bananas thrive in its gardens. For a long time the
town was the object of strife between the rival families of the Sforza and the Visconti. The
town has also been given a picturesque and shady lakeside promenade and has an enchanting historic part with narrow alleys, arbours, restaurants and many small shops. The bathing
beach of Cannero Riviera is also a beauty spot that attracts a great number of visitors, especially in summer.
Cannero Riviera
S. Agata di Novaglio – Oggebbio
Sightseeing
Visible on two offshore islets are the famous Castelli di Malpaga, also called Castelli di
Cannero. The ruins of the castle are spread over the two islets and from the shore look as if
they themselves are growing out of the water. The castles, also called Rocca Vitaliana, were
built by Ludovico Borromeo between 1519 and 1521.
Torchio dei Terrieri – The so-called “Torchio dei Terrieri” is an important record of social
and cultural history and evidence of the local economic tradition. If you follow the signs in
Oggiogno, you soon reach the wine press shed with the press, constructed in 1742. It consists
of a chestnut-wood beam 30 feet long, weighing several tons. As a special attraction you can
visit the small mountain villages above Cannero Riviera. Whether in Trarego-Viggiona or in
Cheglio, you cannot help but be entranced by the magic of past ages.
In the vicinity
South of Cannero Riviera is Oggebbio, which no visitor should miss. The town of Oggebbio
with its around 1000 inhabitants is situated between Cannero Riviera in the north and Ghiffa
in the south on the Piedmontese west side of Lago Maggiore. The community of Oggebbio
encompasses 15 villages, here scattered throughout the mountains, but also reaching as far
down as the lakeside.

Cannobio is the last locality on Lago Maggiore before the Swiss border. Today the small town is
a popular destination for tourists and one of the leading holiday resorts in the entire province.
Excavations have unearthed what are probably pre-Roman graves, evidence of long-standing
human settlement. Because of its geographical position, Cannobio was a major strategic and
economic centre already in Roman times.
The late thirteenth-century Palazzo della Ragione, today called Parasio for short, dominates
the town centre, and the church of San Vittore. The lakeside promenade of Cannobio is
renowned as one of the most beautiful on the entire Lago Maggiore. Just visible beyond it are
the fishermen's houses. Piazza Vittorio Emanuele III is situated directly in front of the old harbour and is the main meeting point of the town. Finally you come to the lido, a wide-ranging
and well tended beach near the Cannobino river estuary. Naturally this is always a popular
goal in summer for a great number of bathers and sun-worshippers.

In the vicinity
Carmine Superiore
The landmark of this small, medieval town Carmine Superiore is the fourteenth-century church
of San Gottardo. This intact, medieval village is located on the rambling route from Cannero
Riviera to Cannobio.
Trarego Viggiona
This community consists of three mountain villages – Trarego, Viggiona and Cheglio – situated in green countryside on the slopes of Monte Carza (3661 feet), with a breathtaking view
onto Lago Maggiore.
Gorge of Sant’Anna
Not far from Cannobio, visitors can experience a breathtaking natural spectacle: the Sant'Anna
Gorge, the start of a track which was originally the only connection between Val Cannobina
and Lago Maggiore. Today it is a popular rambling route through the Val Cannobina. It has a
church dedicated to Our Lady of Loreto and a bridge from Roman times.

Ghiffa also has elegant villas surviving from the nineteenth century, among them the Villa of
the Russian Prince Pietro Troubetzkoy. The township has become known since the nineteenth
century for its production of felt hats, and the milliners of Ghiffa have made a name for themselves all over the world. A millinery museum has been set up in a section of the former Panizza
hat factory.
Sightseeing
The Sacro Monte della SS. Trinità di Ghiffa and its pilgrimage church, three church-sized
chapels and a Way of the Cross from the seventeenth century are situated in the middle of
an extensive nature reserve of 200 hectares, the Riserva Naturale Speciale di SS. Trinità di
Ghiffa. This woodland nature sanctuary around the Sacro Monte is today a centre for leisure
activities: there is a keep-fit course and also a restaurant. The monumental complex consists
of shrine, chapels, and portico of the Way of the Cross. It lies in a breathtaking spot above
Lago Maggiore, in the middle of a nature reserve. Tradition has it that it is the location of many
miracles. Sources from the sixth century already testify to an oratory; the church was probably
first built in the twelfth or thirteenth centuries and enlarged in the seventeenth. The square in
front of the shrine is enclosed by the portico of the Way of the Cross; it consists of 14 arches
with cross vaulting resting on stone columns and leading into a Lady Chapel.

There was already a human settlement here in primeval times and remains of the Bronze Age
and of the Roman Imperial age have been found. Today Premeno is the chief tourist centre of
the Verbania interior. Hospitality has a great tradition and is combined with a unique spirit of
enterprise. The first tennis court in the whole of Italy was opened here in 1903 and was subsequently host to many national tournaments. In 1965 a nine-hole golf course was opened, the
first of its kind in Europe.
Premeno lies in the centre of a basin covered in deciduous and coniferous forests surrounded
by the hills of Sasso Corbé and Pizzo d'Omo. Both heights protect the location from the cold
north winds and ensure a mild climate and bracing air, making it a popular recuperative resort
for tourists and holiday-makers.

The wealthy Lombardian middle-class already discovered Premeno in the nineteenth century by, who built elegant villas here, such as the Villa Calvi, Villa Bonomi, Villa Murari, Villa
Mangiagalli and Villa Bernocchi. Villa Bernocchi is today owned by the municipality and presents major exhibitions, concerts and other events.
The green meadows and slopes were used until recently for pastural agriculture, testified by
the many surviving mountain huts on the alpine pastures and by many well tended walking
routes lined by enchanting votive chapels.
In the vicinity
Several types of traditional handicraft have survived in the little village of Esio near Premeno:
copper work, wrought iron and, first and foremost, woodwork, especially for agricultural
implements.

Valle Cannobina is a wild, spacious, very green and in large areas still unpopulated valley
connecting the Vigezzo Valley with Lago Maggiore. Geographically the valley belongs to the
Alpi Lepontine. The Cannobino rivulet flows through the valley, its banks lined by steep walls of
rock that occasionally form spectacular narrow passes, as in the famous Orrido di S. Anna – a
well-known and very popular excursion destination for tourists and visitors to this region. The
mountains attain a height here of 7217 feet.
Monte Limidario at 7181 feet is the highest mountain in the Valle Cannobina and the Rocce
del Gridone separate the Val Vigezza from the region of the Centovalli. The townships oriented towards the lake include S. Agata, Campeglio, Socragno, Cinzago, Ronco, Marchile,
Rondonico, Formine, S. Bartolomeo, Piaggio.
Among the various centres of the Valle Cannobina are Cavaglio, Gurrone, Spoccia, Orasso,
Cursolo and Finero on the left side of the valley. On the right side are Socraggio, Crealla,
Falmenta and Gurro, all localities that have shaped the region with their own particular traditions. Notable places situated on the valley plain are Ponte Socraggio, Nivetta, Lunecco, Ponte
Falmenta, Ponte Spoccia, Arietta and Creves. One of the valley's characteristic features is that
it is very narrow and dark down below and opens up increasingly as it ascends.
Lago Maggiore opens up at its widest point towards the
Borromeo Bay with the famous Borromeo Islands: Isola
Bella, Isola Madre and Isola dei Pescatori. While Isola
Bella has been transformed by the building activities of
the Borromeo family into a miracle of the baroque creative spirit, and Isola Madre is an ideal garden landscape,
Isola dei Pescatori has remained simple and authentic in
character.

If Stresa is the green paradise of love, Baveno is the serene and enchanted isle of dreams; thus
Nino Bazzetta De Vemenia's description of it in his Guida del Lago Maggiore in 1931. The
town is Roman in origin; seen from Milan it lies beyond Stresa and is today a famous tourist
destination and holiday centre. Baveno is also renowned for its water with low mineral content
and its granite quarries. Its villas are a great sightseeing attraction: Villa Henfrey-Branca, the
Villa Barberis and the Villa Fedora and Villa Durazzo (Lido Palace Hotel), each one of them
well worth a visit. The town of Baveno is one of the starting points for visiting the Borromeo
Islands.
Borromeo Islands, seen from Baveno
Culture
The Romanesque church of SS. Gervasio and Protasio was consecrated on 13 May 1343. It
was recorded as a parish church as early as the 10th and 11th centuries.
In the vicinity
Feriolo
You reach the small district suburb of Feriolo from Baveno via the shore road. Here you see
cheery, colourful houses along the bank of the lake, and one boat after another on the lake.
The village lies in a quiet bay on the Borromeo Gulf, enchanting all comers with its magical
charm. Feriolo, with its lakeside promenade, the beaches, the rustic houses and characteristic
balconies, is indeed a most rewarding destination for the tourist, whether wishing to stay a
while, or just see the sights.
Sight s e e ing
In addition, the building has six subterranean halls with natural grottos, their walls rendered
with tufa and adorned with mosaics. The Italian gardens consist of ten terraces designed like
a blunt pyramid. The terraces form a semi-circle, so grandiose in effect that it is called the
Theatre; standing at the centre is a sculpture of a unicorn, heraldic beast of the Borromeos,
next to it allegorical statues of nature and art, also other mythological stone figures.
Isola dei Pes catori (or Superiore)
The unique outline of an ancient village makes this the most picturesque of the islands: its
pointed campanile towers up over the red roofs; the houses, prettily adorned with low arbours,
look out onto the lake where many boats are moored at the shore. The island is named after
the fishermen, the pescatori, who have lived here for centuries. The fishing island enchants
young and old with its simple houses, its narrow alleys and stone portals and passages. The
church of San Vittore is a national monument and has an original apse with single-arch windows from the eleventh century. There are several typical shops and well-known restaurants
on the islands, where you can try dishes made of freshly caught fish.
Isola dei Pescatori
Isola Madre
Isola Madre is the largest of the Borromeo Islands. It lies in the middle of the gulf and is home
to a resplendent Renaissance palace with one of the most renowned and oldest gardens in
Italy. Starting in the sixteenth century, the Borromeo family gradually transformed the original fortress into a luxurious summer residence. Thanks to the mild climate this included a
stupendous botanical garden: more than 150 different sorts of camellia, a special cypress from
Kashmir, subtropical plants and flowers of unique and exotic types. The fascination of bounteous nature is enhanced even more by the exotic fauna living and running free around the
gardens: among them white peacocks, pheasants of various species and colourful parrots. The
palace was built in the sixteenth century and refurbished by the Princess Borromeo in 1978,
who fitted it out with furniture taken from the various residences of her family. The palace was
converted into a museum. It contains interesting reconstructions of ancient rooms, numerous
collections – liveries, tapestries and porcelain, a puppet theatre, a splendid picture gallery
with sixteenth century Lombardian paintings, and a doll collection with French and German
collector's pieces from the nineteenth century.

The Borromeo Islands are without doubt Lago Maggiore's trademark. They lie in the bay of
the same name, which is lined with the townships of Stresa, Baveno and Verbania. Here Lago
Maggiore is at its widest. The imagination and hard work invested by its population throughout the course of history have made the islands into a region that is outstanding for its rich
culture and art.
Isola Bella, Palazzo Borromeo
Isola Bella
Isola Bella may be described as the most famous of the Borromeo Islands and the one most
popular with the tourists. Its name – formerly Insula Inferior – stems from Isabella, the wife of
Carlo III Borromeo. He started the work of transforming this formerly infertile, rocky island in
the first half of the seventeenth century, a task finished in 1671 by Vitaliano VI. The great baroque palace is a fully fledged museum with unique exhibits of incalculable value, including original furniture, paintings and frescoes from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries, Flemish
tapestries of silk and gold, sculpture and ancient weaponry. There are resplendent halls in the
interior of the building: a ballroom, a throne room, an armoury, an alcoved hall and the Salon
Napoléon, where Napoleon is supposed to have lingered on several occasions.

There is another lake in the immediate vicinity of the Borromeo Bay – a miniature, so to speak,
of its big brother Lago Maggiore.
The lake was originally connected to Lago Maggiore and first separated in the ninth century
by the alluvial land of the Toce. This division caused Lago di Mergozzo to develop a markedly
warmer average temperature. At the west end of Lago di Mergozzo we find the town of the
same name. Motor boats have been prohibited for some years now. It is moreover noted as
one of the cleanest lakes in Upper Italy, thus its camping grounds and beaches are extremely
popular with people who know and love the region. The banks and mountain slopes around the
lake are far less populated than the other banks of Lago Maggiore.

Mergozzo is still excellently preserved in its medieval structure. The location was once
known as the old trade route from Italy via the Simplon Pass (Sempione) to Valais (Wallis) in
Switzerland. Today Mergozzo seems as if time has stood still, with its alleys for pedestrians,
pretty churches and modest houses. The lakeside promenade of the little town is outstanding
for its beauty and cultivation, inviting all comers to take a revitalising walk.

Lago di Mergozzo is separated from the Toce Valley by the mountain Montorfano, 2604 feet

the eleventh-century Romanesque church of S. Giovanni Battista, which has been preserved
almost completely intact. A climb up to the summit of Montorfano provides a unique view
onto both lakes and the mouth of the Toce. A large quarry is evidence today of centuries of
quarry work. Many archaeological finds from this and other excavation sites in the region are

The opulent slopes of the Mottarone, also called the “noble” mountain of Stresa, offers many

Mottarone leading directly to the summit of the mountain, altitude 4891 feet. Halfway you
can make a pleasant stop and visit the Alpine Gardens, famous for their alpine mountain flora.
Many small, idyllic villages have accumulated on the slopes of the Mottarone, such as Gignese,

By the late nineteenth century, Stresa had developed into the "Pearl of Verbano" and is one
of the most famous destinations on Lago Maggiore. The town lies directly opposite the
Borromeo Islands, and its location has made it a central launching point for boat excursions
across the entire Borromeo Bay.
Stresa
This “little strip of land” was originally a farming settlement. Later it developed into a popular holiday resort for the nobility. A few remains can still be seen of the former castle; they
can be viewed in the Villa Pallavicino gardens. The real heart of the town – more than the
Piazza Cadorna, a lovely square with shops, cafés and restaurants – is the fabulous lakeside
promenade, an elegant avenue with opulent gardens and colourful floral borders and with a
breathtaking view onto the Gulf of Borromeo; on the other side you see the villas and luxury
hotels from the belle époque, including the Grand Hotel des Iles Borromées and the equally
famous Regina Palace.

Stresa was ruled – and thus shaped – by the Visconti and Borromeo families until 1748. After
several decades of Austrian rule, Stresa and the whole western bank of the Verbano region was
allotted to the Savoy dynasty. The Napoleonic road, the well-known Sempione Tunnel and the
railway line of the same name greatly increased the onrush of tourism in the early nineteenth
century. Stendhal, Chateaubriand, Dumas, Dickens and Lord Byron all added to the town's
renown through their literary works. Today several congresses and international events are
held in Stresa in the modern Palazzo dei Congressi.

Monterosso
The round, characteristic profile of this 2,276 feet-high mountain looms up in front of Lago
Maggiore. You can see it directly beyond the localities of Fondotoce and Suna. Interesting
archaeological finds have been made in this region, testifying to human settlement of at least
3000 years. A trip to the summit of the wooded Mount Monterosso rewards you with a 360°
panoramic view across the entire Bay of Borromeo.
This zone covers the shorelines of the lower Piedmontese
Verbano region. Belonging to it are Arona, Mount Mottarone
in the north and the town of Invorio in the direction of the
southern summit of Lago d'Orta. There are many enchanting townships in the environs, including Arona, Massino
Visconti, Meina, Lesa and Belgirate.
A breathtaking landscape has evolved in the Lower Lago.
The surrounding mountain range of Alto Vergante reaches
a maximum altitude of around 2625 feet; mountains and
valleys teem with water – a characteristic feature of the
region – as are the many scattered alpine villages.
Before the major roads and railways were built and the
steamship line started on Lago Maggiore, there was a
flourishing harbour in Castelletto Sopra Ticino and Sesto
Calende on the southern mouth of the Lago; it was of
great import for trade with the whole of Northern Italy and
Switzerland.

Alto Vergante is actually a mountain range with a maximum altitude of 2625 feet; it stretches
from the southern part of Lago Maggiore to the town of Stresa. It separates Lago Maggiore
from the neighbouring Lago d'Orta. Thick, untouched forests grow on the heights of Alto
Vergante, ideal for mountain bikers and hikers. From here you see one beautiful vista opening
up after another of one or the other lakes.
Numerous pretty villages dot its hills, among them Massino Visconti. It is constructed on an
incline of around 1969 feet between Monte Cornaggia at 3025 feet and Monte San Salvatore
at 2605 feet. The village centre is located on the east side of this mountain. Massino Visconti
has much to offer the tourist, with is historic and artistic heritage, the riches of its landscape
and its mild climate; it also offers plenty of accommodation, and restaurants serving dishes of
the region.
San Salvatore is a place of pilgrimage with a numinous and mystical aura. Following one of
the many paths descending the sides of the mountain you find yourself immediately in untainted, natural countryside. Shady chestnut forests alternate with beeches; heather, broom and
fern grow along the way, also groups of silver birch. This beautiful vantage point was no doubt
one of the reasons the Benedictines built an abbey here around 1000 AD. Augustinian canons
arrived in 1400 and introduced devotions to the Madonna della Cintura. They lived her for
more than two hundred years until they were superseded by hermits. There are two chapel
in the square, San Quirico and Santa Maria Maddalena, both of which contain beautiful old
frescoes.

Arona lies in the province of Novara and was originally built between the precipitous rock massifs of the Vergante mountain range foothills. The town has every right to be named the Gate
to Lago Maggiore. Arona drops down gently from the surrounding slopes towards the water.
Its lakeside promenade is lined with ancient trees, and its character is shaped by medieval and
baroque architecture. Among the jewels of the town centre is the collegiate church of Santa
Maria, a Renaissance building housing a polyptych by the renowned artist Gaudenzio Ferrari.
Also well worth a visit are the churches of the Santi Martiri and Santa Maria di Loreto.
And there's always something going on Corso Cavour, the pedestrian precinct and main
shopping street in the historic centre. You can also find villas with beautiful gardens, such as
the Villa Ponti, noted for its art exhibitions, and the Villa Cantoni – one of the most elegant
and resplendent villas of Verbano; then there is the Villa Zuccòli with a terraced park, always
a great attraction for a multitude of visitors. The medieval trading centre of the Piazza del
Popolo is particularly impressive, it is situated directly on the lakeside promenade and opens
up to the lake. Here, in the heart of the town, you also find the so-called Casa del Podestà, with
an entrancing pointed-arch arcade and the Museo Archeologico, with fascinating archaeological finds. Arona is in addition one of the headquarters of the shipping company (Navigazione
Lago Maggiore) and thus an ideal embarkation point for boat excursions across the entire
Lago Maggiore.
Culture
Early urban development originated in antiquity. A Benedictine abbey dominated the town
from above until it became part of the domain of the Torriani in the twelfth century – and of
the Visconti from 1277. The fief of Arona went to the ruling family of the Borromeos in 1439,
who held it until the eighteenth century. In 1744 Arona was endowed the status of a city by
Carlo Emanuele III of Savoy. Primarily owing to its favourable geographical location the city of
Arona soon became an important trade centre between the regional capital of Milan and the
Swiss canton of Tessin (Ticino).
Sight s e e ing
In the vicinity
St. Charles Borromeo was born in 1538 in the castle above Arona, the Castello della Rocca,
where a monument is dedicated to him. Beyond the town the monumental statue of
St. Charles Borromeo rises up as its landmark; it is called San Carlone by the local people. At
77 feet it is one of the largest statues in the world and thus an outstanding religious monument
in the region around Lago Maggiore. It was commissioned by Cardinal Federico Borromeo and
executed between 1614 and 1698. And there's an extra trick to it: you can actually go into the
statue, which has small windows on various sides providing a fantastic view onto the surrounding landscape and the lake. On the opposite, east shore of the lake in the province of Varese
is the Rocca d'Angera, a fascinating medieval castle.

Arona San Carlo
South of Stresa is the elegant village of Belgirate. Belgirate is ten kilometres from Verbania and
80 kilometres from Milan. It is a favourite Lago Maggiore address for prominent people and
VIPS. The fascination of grand, stylish villas with spacious gardens such as the Villa Carlotta
or the equally famous Villa Cairoli is a great attraction for visitors. Many old houses with their
typical loggias and beautiful churches, some of them from the fifteenth century, lend the town
its special aura.
Culture
Whether the name of the town is Celtic or Lombard in origin is still a matter of controversy. The
locality was inhabited as early as Roman times, as is proven by coins found in the region. But
the area was a place of settlement even before this – demonstrated by finds from the Stone
Age. Belgirate was the meeting place in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries of several
intellectuals, among them the author Stendhal. Some scenes from his work “The Carthusians
of Parma” are located here. But other famous personalities were attracted by the locality,
including Gozzano, Rosmini and de Amicis – and first and foremost the great Italian writer
Alessandro Manzoni; they returned time and again to sojourn in the area.

Lago Maggiore
Located between Meina and Belgirate is the charming resort of Lesa, noted among other
things for its typical arcades lining the shores. It is situated in one of the sheltered coves of Lago
Maggiore and can be described as a typical, elegant holiday resort with luxuriant gardens and
beautiful summer palaces.
In the ancient district of Solcio there are several villas visible between the lake and a hill opposite a small cove, one of them the Villa Cavallini. Also worth mention are the neo-classical Villa
Stampa and the Villa Correnti, commissioned to be built in neo-classical style in the late nineteenth century by the statesman Cesare Correnti. Then there is the Castello Florio – a small
castle built in the early nineteenth century by the engineer Viotti in imitation of the medieval
castles of Lesa. Visitors can also go to the Villa Savio-Sozzani-Tavella, a fortress-like building
by the architect Pietro Bottini, now accommodating an exclusive restaurant.
Culture
One of the most famous inhabitants of Lesa was the Italian author Alessandro Manzoni. The
writer achieved world fame in the nineteenth century with his novel “I promessi sposi” (The
Betrothed). He lived here in the so-called Villa Stampa. Since 1839 for over twenty years,
he spent the summer months in this beautiful, mid-eighteenth-century villa, which had formerly belonged to his second wife Teresa Borri, widow of Count Decio Stampa. The Museo
Manzoniano was founded in his memory and contains a great number of individual documents illustrating the writer's life and work.

The Ossola Valleys and their towns and villages in the north of the
Lago Maggiore region are again a cosmos in themselves: here you
can enjoy both the beauty of the valleys – around Domodossola,
for instance – as well as the fascination of high mountains.
The entire region is characterised by very diverse landscapes. It
evolved between the Lepontine Alps, the lakes in the south and
in the north towards Switzerland. As a whole, the Ossola Valleys
are more tranquil in impression, more natural, yet sometimes they
manifest an aura that is nothing less than dramatic.
From the northernmost township in Piedmont, Valle Formazza,
you travel through one valley after another – Valle Antigorio,
Valle Divedro, Valle Bognanco, Valle Antrona and the famous
Vigezzo Valley, and into the Valle Anzasca to the peak of Monte
Rosa:
In Macugnaga you find yourself at the foot of the awesome, snowcovered massif of Monte Rosa, at 15,213 feet the second highest
mountain in Europe.
The Ossola Valleys are particularly fascinating for individual tourists: they are ideal for hiking – alone around 1553 miles of walking
paths await the visitor. Furthermore, you can go on unforgettable
trips on the Vigezzina railway through the Centovalli region in
Switzerland, which takes you through a wild, rugged landscape
seemingly untouched by human hand.
The Val Grande National Park is after all the greatest wild life
reserve in the whole of Italy – an attraction in itself.
The Parco Naturale Alpe Veglia e Devero – a protected nature
reserve at the Swiss border in the canton of Vallais (Wallis) is also
well worth a visit.
Alone 70 different types of cheeses can be tasted here, among
them of course the king of cheeses, the Bettelmatt. This region
produces various kinds of salami, too, not to forget the famous
gnocchi made of chestnut flour.

This is the wildest valley of the Ossola Valleys. Though not the most famous, it is undoubtedly the most secluded, a special circumstance to which the Valle Antrona owes its natural,
unaltered character until this very day. The Antrona Valley is the least known part of the
entire Ossola region, thus its extraordinary tranquillity and originality amidst pastures and
woodland, small villages and old-world alpine huts. Absolute stillness reigns in the valley; time
itself seems to have stood still. Numerous alpine lakes form the main feature of this landscape,
evolved through glacier erosion. The road through the valley starts in Villadossola, a place
noted primarily for its active cultural centre La Fabbrica, and divides in Antronapiana into
sourtherly and northerly direction. In the southerly direction it leads to the lake of the same
name, Antrona, in the northerly direction to an artificial lake: the Lago Alpe dei Cavalli.
Lago Alpe dei Cavalli
Culture
You can not only feel the past in this alpine region, but actually experience it as reality. The
pastures and clusters of villages are centuries old and testify to an archaic world – a living
history book, so to speak. A really unique feature is the typical architecture of the villages scattered throughout the valley, where customs and traditions are preserved which have otherwise
long fallen into oblivion in other alpine regions. Anyone who travels along the roads from
Montescheno, Viganella, Seppiana and Antronapiana will encounter ovens where people
still bake their own bread, and houses built in a style typical of the alpine region. Another common feature of the townships in the valley are the old wine presses – one of them for example
goes back to the year 1745 and after restoration is still in use. It is set up in Antronapiana. This
valley is unusual for its many other idyllic lakes waiting to be discovered along the rambling
paths – Lago di Campliccioli, for instance, or the artificial lake Camposecco at 7628 feet.
From this lake you can get to another artificial lake: Cingino.

The Valle Anzasca is famed as one of the most frequented and also most beautiful valleys in
the entire Ossola region – inhabited as well by chamois and ibex. The valley is named after
the river Anza. It is very dark and narrow in its lower region, and opens up more and more as
it rises up to the summit of Monte Rosa. Eleven pyramid-shaped peaks covered in snow with
Himalaya-like cliffs and rocks the form the famous Monte Rosa, a mountain range 15,213 feet
high. Its name is derived from the word “roise”, which means glacier.

Sig htseeing
Ossola Valleys
The best way to get to know the Anzasca Valley is to take a trip to one of its famous alpine
refuges: for instance the alpine hut of Zamboni-Zappa. You can get directly to Macugnaga by
chairlift and from there along a marked, circular route to the alpine hut. Here, on the Pedriola
alpine pasture at a height of 6791 feet, you have a breathtaking view over the troughs of the
Del Belvedere glacier.
Macugnaga rises up at the foot of Monte Rosa and is a well-developed, modern tourist centre
both in summer and winter; yet at the same time has preserved its historic and valuable heritage as a witness to the Walser culture. It is significant that Italian was first made the teaching
language in schools as late as 1880. For winter sports fans there are two cross-country routes
winding their way amongst the ancient houses of Pecetto and Isella, then leading on into the
forests. From here you can start out on foot or skis along the most beautiful routes around
Monte Rosa. Advanced hikers can take the path through the Ossola Valleys: 249 miles of hiking in 25 stages – who could wish for anything more?
Hinderbalmo is the name of a collection of huts and alpine farms at an altitude of 6398 feet
above Macugnaga.
To the right of the path leading up here and about 500 yards before the hut you arrive at a
large, irregularly shaped rock with incised signs on it in various places. Notwithstanding that
the typical cruciform signs are missing, they are possibly the traces of pilgrims wandering
through from Vallais (Wallis).
Macugnaga Church
Culture
The historic town of Macugnaga has been shaped first and foremost by the mountain people
of the Walser. This Alemannic people settled in Upper Vallais (Wallis) in the thirteenth century,
later expanding their own colonies from the Bern uplands as far as the Grimsel Pass and the
heights of the Gom. The Walser settlement also extends to include the Val Formazza, the
Simplon Valley, the Aosta Valley and the valley hollows of Monte Rosa – and thus also to the
town of Macugnaga.
The influence of Walser culture is still evident in the structure of the houses built of wood and
masonry. A church of Our Lady was built in the second half of the thirteenth century, reconstructed several times in the course of the centuries; it is also another witness to Walser culture.
Not far from the church, now surrounded by a cemetery, is a lime tree from the thirteenth century, where in earlier times laws were decreed and councils held. The imposing tree, now more
than 700 years old, has a trunk measuring 23 feet.
Not far from the Walser House Museum is the village of Fornarelli, the location of the goldmine of Guia. The mine was in operation for over two hundred years, from 1710 to 1946. It
has the proud reputation of being the first mine in Italy to have been re-opened for cultural
purposes.

On leaving Domodossola you immediately come to the relatively short valley of Bognanco
stretching along an area of 8 miles. Bognanco is moreover an obligatory destination for hiking
fans.
The landscape is full of variety here, thus offering ideal conditions for excursions. Its real and
very special richness is endowed by its springs. Their water is medicinal; this effect was discovered in 1863 when a priest, Father Tichelli, found a source here. The medium-strong mineral
water of the spring of Ausonia has a soothing effect on the digestion, the duodenum and kidneys. The Baths of Bognanco are open only in the months from May to October.

Then there is the spring of San Lorenzo, with water of bicarbonate and magnesium content,
a therapy for complaints of the liver, the gall bladder and the digestive system. From 1893
onwards, hotel complexes were built to accommodate and care for the spa guests streaming in
from all over. In this way the little village became a magnet for visitors. Its range of services has
been constantly enhanced with new therapies and health facilities – aerosol therapy, natural
carbon dioxide baths, and spring and spa cures. Recently an Institute of Physiotherapy was
opened, offering massages, inhalation therapies, baths, hydro-massage and saunas.

The Divedro, Antigorio and Formazza valleys begin near Crevoladossola in the vicinity of
Domodossola. The Antigorio and Formazza valleys together form a geographic unit, extending as the vale of the river Toce to the township of Riale close to the Swiss border. This is also
the northernmost point in Piedmont. A formative feature of the Divedro Valley in the direction
of the Simplon Pass is the torrent of Diveria. There is also railway line passing through the
Divedro Valley, and the old Napoleonic road leading to Switzerland.
When you leave the Orridi di Uriezzo – imposing gorges – in the Antigorio-Formazza Valley,
you arrive at the Conca di Formazza at around 4002 feet. You can go skiing on the Sabbione
glacier at 9842 feet even in summer – all in all a truly gigantic natural spectacle, especially
the waterfall of Cascata del Toce. The road continues steeply uphill as a footpath and ends at
7588 feet at the Passo di San Giacomo at the Swiss border. The Riale Formazza is a famous
cross-country circuit and was used in recent years by several national teams in preparation for
competitions. The Devero Valley opens up at Baceno, leading to the well-known Alpe Veglia
e Devero Nature Park.
Culture
The inhabitants of the Antigorio and Formazza Valley stem from the mountain people of the
Walser, who have influenced this region with their original way of life and traditions. This is
noticeable in the language, in the architecture, and in the traditional dishes, which have all
acquired their own quite individual character. Although the Antigorio and Formazza valley is
one single valley, it has two different cultural origins: that of the Rhaeto-Romanic culture and
that of the Walser. The Antigorio Valley always formed an important connection between
Vallais (Wallis) and Tessin (Ticino). One of its townships is Crodo, well known for its excellent
water and source of the famous Italian aperitif Crodino. The Antigorio Valley is very diverse in
its geology. The parish church of San Gaudenzio in Baceno is well worth a visit in itself.

The Ossola Valley is an ancient land with innumerable aspects testifying to its history. It is a
borderland between the Lepontine Alps and the northernmost part of the Piedmontese region.
The Ossola Valley forms the backbone of the entire Ossola region between Lago Maggiore and
Crevoladossola. All other valleys in the region fan out from here. Because of its favourable strategic situation, the Ossola Valley has always acted as an important trade route between Italy
and the countries on the other side of the Alps, as is verified by many historical finds from the
region. The restructuring of some of its industrial operations has radically changed the character of the Ossola Valley. What were once purely industrial sites have now been transformed
into modern cultural centres.
The enormously valuable resource of the Ossola Valleys is of course stone: so many kinds can
be found here: granite, marble, beola – a type of gneiss granite, Serizzo – a type of granite.
Stone in all forms and colours determines the landscape of the Ossola Valleys. Local architecture and building is based almost entirely on the use of this material. This applies to residential buildings and roads, monuments, even to garden beds. The mountain range contains a
considerable variety of minerals, some of which are very rare. Operational and management
methods are today among the most advanced in this sphere of industry; moreover, measures
have been taken for some years now to re-naturalise the region.
Culture
Domodossola – historic town
Domodossola has grown out of the ancient city of Oscela Lepontorum, the capital of the
Leoponzi. The later Domus Oxulae served as the centre of Christendom for the whole of the
region. The construction of the Simplon road in 1805 and the Simplon Tunnel in 1906 led the
town out of its historical isolation. Its historic town centre is medieval in origin and has kept its
charm until today, as is manifest in the picturesque Piazza Mercato, fourteenth- and fifteenthcentury arbours, and the houses with their typical wooden balconies.

Tower of Piedimulera and Cimamulera
Piedimulera, situated between the course of the Toce and the Anza mountain stream at the
entrance to the Valle Anzasca, was in the seventeenth century an important centre of trade
traffic in grain, wine and other goods. Passing through it was the great transit route connecting the bottom of the valley with Macugnaga and Vallais (Wallis). The most important military
complex is the Torre Ferrerio from 1594.
Castle of Vogogna
The castle was built in 1348 on commission of Giovanni Visconti, the Bishop of Novara and
Archbishop and Sovereign of Milan, to protect the village of Vogogna and the valley. To
improve its defence an extra ring wall was set up, enclosing the entire village centre. Today
there is hardly anything to be seen of the walls, whereas the castle with its turrets and battlements looms up as majestically as in the Middle Ages, dominating the whole village from the
mountain slope.

The valley starts in Masera and Trontano, a municipality of the Val Grande Nature Park. The
villages of Santa Maria Maggiore and Malesco are among the most well-known localities in
the valley. Santa Maria Maggiore is renowned throughout Italy as a good-luck village, for this
where the spazzacamini, the “black men”, come from, in whose honour a Chimney Sweep
Museum has been founded – the only one of its kind in Italy.
The so-called blue Vigezzina Railway passes through this landscape. The panoramic route of
this railway line is 32 miles long, travels over 83 bridges and through 31 tunnels, passes over
awesome gorges, past houses of local stone and wild and elemental rocks, and in one and
a half hours connects Domodossola with Locarno on Lago Maggiore in Switzerland. It also
stops at several stations in Vigezzo. The valley is named Centovalli between the Swiss border
and the lake. This is where lovers of untouched and peaceful nature and advanced hikers will
find a genuine paradise, because the mountain peaks in Val Vigezzo seldom surpass an altitude of 7874 feet.
Culture
The village of Druogno goes back to Celtic times; its name means “Village of the Oaks”.
Some finds suggest the presence of prehistoric human settlement, like the crucible-shaped
signs marking rocks of the Campra alpine pasture. Today this is primarily a region of pastural
agriculture.
The Vigezzo Valley during its time was known among connoisseurs as the valley of the
painters. Artists like Rosetti Valentini, Gian Maria Rastellini, Lorenzo Peretti, Enrico Cavalli
et al. worked here and became renowned beyond the borders of Italy particularly for their
landscapes. Almost at the end of the valley in Re is a Gothic or Byzantine pilgrimage church. It
is dedicated to the Madonna of the Blood, which is supposed to have appeared there miraculously in 1494. Devout pilgrims have come in droves to Re throughout the ages to wonder at
the miracle of Re and pray at the shrine of the "Blood Madonna". On 29 April 1494, Giovanni
Zuccone is supposed to have thrown a stone at the picture, hitting the Madonna on her forehead. It was reported that blood flowed from the face of the Madonna for 20 days. A few years
ago a hostel for pilgrims and a retreat house was built next to the shrine.

Situated above Orta half way up the mountain of Mottarone we find the small townships of
Armeno and Miasino. The venerable town of Armeno has been shaped by its grand, feudal
culture: the Villa Tornielli stands out under the crowded buildings of the town; it is now the
Town Hall. The villa also possesses a very beautiful baroque garden.
Culture
The parish church of Santa Maria Assunta is the landmark of Armeno. It is noted in the Cusio
region as the epitome of a twelfth-century Romanesque building, always fascinating in its
simple and mystical beauty. Its interior walls are in part of bare stone, reflecting the austerity
of the exterior; but visitors can also wonder at the precious sixteenth-century frescoes, for
example the famous Trinità tricefala, a rare, anthropomorphic portrayal of the Holy Trinity.
Also part of the church is an old tower, thought to have been built prior to the church. The town
is known for two other things as well: for its world-famous kitchen chefs and its top-quality
training in the catering profession.
Situated between the Valsesia and Lago Maggiore we find Lago d'Orta, also known
under its Latin name of "Cusio". It is surrounded by a landscape more charming than
overwhelming, scattered with old stone houses. The region is generally noted as being
one of peaceful and picturesque holiday resorts, with San Giulio the most popular.
There is noticeably less residential settlement and tourist bustle here than in the neighbouring townships of Lago Maggiore – except twice a year, when the famous flower
In the vicinity
The region is called Cascine di Armeno and lies at the edge of the Agogna Valley. Here we find
little country villages along the river, prospering in the midst of thick woodland. The farmerland communities of Pezzasco, Tacchino, Sculera, Milanetto, Tabarino, Lanciano, Barozzera,
Cassano and Pecorino boast of old stone houses, great green meadows and an atmosphere to
inspire every painter. There are numerous well-tended paths and mule tracks for rambling and
mountain-biking through the forests.

In Miasino, too, there are also traces of settlement that go back to the Iron Age. In the Middle
Ages civic and religious life was closely linked to the other coastal townships of Orta, all under
the sovereign rule of the bishops and dukes of Novara. Culturally the town has retained its
significance among other things through a private school specialising in the humanities.
show transforms the Ortafiori streets and squares into a sea of flowers.
The west shore of Lago d'Orta is steep and rugged; its mountains already part of the
foothills of the Monte Rosa massif, the second highest mountain massif in the Alps,
whereas the east shore rises more gently towards Mottarone, which attains an altitude
of 4892 feet and separates the Lago d'Orta from Lago Maggiore.
The climate is extremely mild – especially on the east shore – until well into autumn,
meadows and forests cover wide areas: here we mainly find sweet chestnut trees and
beeches, in higher regions also pine and spruce forests.
The town of Omegna lies at the north mouth of the lake. It is renowned world-wide
for its design label companies, for example Alessi. The Valle Strona begins westwards
from Omegna. Throughout its history the valley has always been completely secluded
and for this reason has continued to keep its independence and autonomy – something
its inhabitants are still very proud of and value greatly. Other outstandingly attractive
places around the lake are Pettenasco, Armeno, Agrano, Miasino, Pella and Ronco.

Omegna lies at the north end of Lago d'Orta and is a lively industrial centre for metal processing, which has kept its own identity as a central focus on the lake. The district is today named
Distretto dei casalinghi; designer companies such as Alessi, Lagostina, Bialetti and Calderoni
have become established here. The town was divided up into the districts of Bagnella, Borca,
Crusinallo, Cireggo, Santa Rita, Agrano, Gattugno and Sant'Anna. The Piazza XXV Aprile
opens up to the lake and can be reached via an attractive lakeside promenade. The historic
town centre is enclosed by buildings from the Middle Ages, the Renaissance and the baroque
era and radiates a peaceful, meditative aura.

In the oldest part of the town, the quarter between the parish church and the Piazza Orsoline,
there are clear traces of adornments from many centuries, including portals, stone and stucco ornaments, and wrought iron grating. The Romanesque church of Collegiata di Sant'
Ambrogio is the foremost building in Omegna. It has in its interior a resplendent baroque altar
and a sixteenth-century winged altarpiece, attributed to the artist Fermo Stella. The church of
San Gaudenzio in the district of Crusinallo is one of the best preserved Romanesque buildings
in the entire Cusio region.
In the vicinity
Monte Zuoli is a range of foothills about 1312 feet high and around 2 miles from Omegna;
from the top you have an impressive view onto the whole of Lago d'Orta. Quarna Sopra and
the twin community of Quarna Sotto are situated on a gentle hill before the descent into the
Valle Strona, very popular as a favourable starting point for ramblers and mountain hikers.
Quarna Sotto boasts of a long handicraft tradition in the construction of wind instruments,
while Quarna Sopra has made a name for itself in turning and shaping wood. The workshops
of the instrument makers have for ever and a day been a Mecca for great jazz musicians from
all over the world.

Culture
Legend has it that the island of San Giulio was once inhabited by a giant serpent, which
destroyed all and sundry. When Julius, an itinerant saint, approached the island, he chased
away all wild animals there, spread his cloak across the water and reached the island without
getting wet. At the end of his life he decided to build a church on the island for his final resting
place. Today the island has a mythical, mystical aura. The Basilica of San Giulio is itself one of
the foremost Romanesque buildings in the whole of Piedmont. Certainly one of the attractions
for visitors is a mysterious, medieval pulpit made of black marble. It shows the four symbols
of the Evangelists and fabulous beasts and is said to be the work of an anonymous master of
the Middle Ages. One of the most prominent visitors to Orta San Giulio was the philosopher
Friedrich Nietzsche, who honoured the location with his presence in May 1882, accompanied
by the young Lou Salomé.

Val Strona, though less known, has a most charming landscape, stretching from Omegna
on Lago d'Orta in a north-westerly direction and is bordered there by the end of a grandiose
alpine valley. The valley ascends to 4265 feet in Campello Monti. The Strona Valley is part of
a breathtaking landscape and a paradise for ramblers and hikers of all grades of proficiency.
Almost lost in the stillness of the Valle Strona, Campello Monti is a tiny, very ancient village,
once subject to the jurisdiction of the Walser. It has lost none of its original charm. Campello
Monti consists of a cluster of houses in delicate colours, with characteristic slate roofs. Framed
by the utter greenness of the valley slopes and high mountain peaks, the village is an ideal
starting point for excursions, for instance trips to the alpine lakes of Capezzone and Ravinella.
Apart from the landscape, the beautiful eighteenth-century parish church of San Giovanni
Battista is well worth a visit.
The Witches' Grotto is perhaps the most interesting of all grottos in the Valle Strona, but by no
means the only one: another system, the Complesso dell'Intaglio consisting of twisting passageways is located a little further upwards. The Balma dal Diaù above Luzzogno has a cave
opening up at its end with a waterfall. Other such sightseeing attractions are the Balma di Faij
on Monti di Chesio near the Castuaga alpine pasture, which has two caves full of stalagmites
and stalactites, and, finally, the Grotte di Ravinella under the alpine pasture just mentioned,
which even has a small lake in it.

Culture
In 1256, Walser migrants from Vispertal and Simplon established a settlement here. A brook
formed the border between the communities of Campello and Forno and simultaneously the
provinces of Novara and Vercelli. This border was not only geographic, but also cultural: the
rustic culture of the Strona Valley developed on the valley side and on the mountain side the
Walser culture of Rimella and Campello.

Orta San Giulio, the actual heart of Lago d'Orta, lies between imposing villas on a peninsula.
The historic centre of the town has churches, romantic alleyways and squares; it is now a
traffic-calmed zone.
The Palazzo della Comunità is an adornment for the town centre and was erected in 1582.
The building was used for a long time as the Consiglio Generale della Comunità della piccola
Repubblica della Riviera d’Orta, the seat of government of the tiny Orta republic. The Piazza
Motta, the hub of the town, is a popular meeting place. The most obvious charm of Orta San
Giulio is doubtlessly its breathtaking location. Opposite the town of Orta San Giulio we see
the actual landmark of Lago d'Orta, the island of San Giulio. It is named after St. Julius and
lies more or less in the middle of the lake. It is 902 feet long and 459 feet wide, but its total
perimeter only measures around 6481 feet.

Lake Orta
On a sparsely populated shore of Lago d'Orta are the little towns of Pella and the neighbouring
village of Ronco. This is where the Lago d'Orta is most peaceful and thus most romantic, far
away from tourist bustle. The picturesque alleyways in both localities beckon visitors to take
a stroll. From the beautiful lakeside promenade you look directly onto the island of San Giulio
lying opposite.
In the vicinity
Shortly before Pella there is a fork in the road leading up the side of a mountain. At an altitude
of 2093 ft it reaches a place that has great relevance for the history of art: the pilgrimage
church of Madonna del Sasso built on a very steep and precipitous granite rock, one of the
most spectacular sacred sites in the entire region. It was built between 1730 and 1748 and
rises above the remains of a Late Medieval chapel, its origins wound about in convolutions of
legend. It contains a sixteenth-century Pietà by Fermo Stella and a wooden crucifix from the
seventeenth century. You have a marvellous panoramic view up here across the surrounding
landscape, onto the lake, and onto Mount Mottarone. A unique relic of medieval castle architecture can be seen in the solitary, thirteenth-century Torre di Buccione in the nature reserve
of the same name.

The pretty little town of Angera lies on the Lombardian shore opposite Arona in Piedmont.
Lago Maggiore is barely a mile wide at this extremely narrow point. Already inhabited in
prehistoric times, the town developed under the Romans into an important pivot of activity.
During the Middle Ages, Angera was the ruling seat of a powerful duchy. It gets its identifying
landmark from this period, the main sightseeing attraction of the little harbour town: the castle
of Rocca d’Angera, throning on a rock.
The Lombardian east shore of Lago Maggiore stretches from
Sesto Calende on the southernmost point of the lake to Zenna
on the Swiss border, a distance of around 40 miles. Compared to
the Piedmontese west shore opposite, it makes a wilder and more
elemental impression.
The Lombardian shore is surrounded by gentle hills all the way up
to Laveno. The thick reed belt is also a characteristic feature of this
section – which is extremely interesting as well for its wealth of
prehistoric and Roman archaeological finds. Moreover, the many
medieval buildings here provide an in-depth view of their epoch.
Further north the lake shore becomes much steeper. Like the
hinterland it bears almost alpine features. Between the wooded
mountains, often over 3281 feet high, are Valcuvia, Valtravaglia
and Val Veddasca, extending all the way to Lago Maggiore. In this
section the fascination exerted by the landscape is simply spellbinding.
About 15 miles east of Laveno is Varese, the capital of the province
with the same name. The massif of Campo dei Fiori (4022 feet)
looms up to the north of the city; here the foothills of the Alps
come to an end and, looking westwards, Lago di Varese stretches
out towards them.
Sightseeing
The Rocca was built on the remains of a previous castle and inhabited in the thirteenth and
fourteenth centuries by the Visconti; it was extended and then acquired by the Borromeo family, who still own it today. Fascinating art treasures can be seen inside the castle, among them
the frescoes of the Sala di Giustizia in the Visconti Wing. They date from the early fourteenth
century and among the subjects they depict is the victory of the Visconti over the Torriani. Also
remarkable are the frescoes in the Borromeo Wing, which were part of the Borromeo Palazzo
in Milan until 1943 but were brought to Angera after the palace was destroyed. And there’s
more, for the Dolls Museum is well worth a visit. It has more than 200 exhibits and is one of
the foremost museums of its kind in the whole of Europe. The Castellana Tower offers a view
of a very special kind: the panorama from up here encompasses the castle complex and the
crowning crenellations of the circumvallation, and extends all the way to the Sacro Monte near
Varese. In contrast to medieval Rocca, the Archaeological Museum in the imposing Palazzo
Pretorio illuminates the most ancient, prehistoric and above all Roman past of Angera. Close
by the harbour is the pilgrimage church of Madonna della Riva; among its treasures inside
is a very beautiful altar fresco of the Virgin Mary and Child (Madonna col Bambino) dated
1443. Other pleasures awaiting the visitor include a walk along Angera’s lakeside promenade, lined by a double row of great chestnut trees and looking out towards the little island of
Partegora.

In the vicinity
Not far from the southernmost point of Lago Maggiore where the Ticino leaves the lake is
the little town of Sesto Calende on the left bank of the river. A double-level iron bridge leads
across into the Piedmontese province of Novara. A must-see in Sesto Calende is the Museo
Civico Archeologico Naturalistico. It houses impressive archaeological finds of the Golasecca
Culture, an Iron Age culture (9th – 5th centuries BC), which was so called after the spot where
the finds were excavated, the nearby Golasecca. Outside the town the Romanesque Church
of San Donato is especially worth a visit. North of Angera we come to the little township of
Ranco, noted for its traditional architecture. The Transport Museum here has an interesting
collection of diverse transport vehicles .

The East Shore
and Varese
Of all the towns on the east shore, Laveno, situated at the margin of a deep cove, is the only
one to possess a natural harbour. Because of the ferry connection to Verbania and the railway
line via Varese all the way to Milan, in the 1880s the town grew into an important hub of trade
and trans-shipment. This fostered the establishment of various kinds of industry, ceramics one
of the most notable.
Laveno Mombello
Sightseeing
Nor should you miss a stroll along the entrancing lakeside promenade in Laveno; it attracts
innumerable visitors on public holidays and market days. Likewise stretching along the shore is
the town centre, developed in the nineteenth century; its buildings form a colourful, multifaceted backdrop setting the scene. Some way further upwards on a hill we find the older centre of
the little town, built in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Next to the church of Santi
Giacomo e Filippo is the Villa De Angeli Frua, accommodating the town hall. The villa gardens are now used as a Parco pubblico, a public park. Another extremely popular destination
– and not only for hang gliders and paragliders – is the summit of Sasso del Ferro, 3484 feet
high. An aerial cableway takes you up to the nearby mountain peak, which has a fantastic
view onto the lake and the Monte Rosa massif beyond it.
In the vicinity
Reminders of the former ceramics industry can be found in the Museo della Ceramica in a little
township by the name of Cerro, which, like Mombello, now belongs to Laveno. The museum is
not only full of interest, but is housed in the very splendid, Late-Renaissance Palazzo Perabò.
Also worth a visit is the artists’ community village of Arcumeggia on the slopes of Monte
Nudo. In the mid-twentieth century, several famous artists adorned the outside walls of the
houses of this old village with impressive frescoes. If you travel in a northerly direction from
Laveno you soon reach the picturesque locality of Caldè. Like several other places straggling
between Lago Maggiore and the surrounding hills, the little village with its fishers’ houses lining
the shore is part of the communal district of Castelveccana. Even further northwards, towards
Luino, you arrive at the lively town of Porto Valtravaglia. Its small lakeside promenade is lined
with plane trees; in addition, the historic centre contains excellently preserved buildings from
the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Also worth a visit are the parish church Parrocchiale
dell’Assunta and the nearby Oratorio di San Rocco.
The East Shore
and Varese
Sight s e e ing
Sightseeing
Sightseeing attractions include the two churches Madonna del Carmine and San Giuseppe on
Luino’s beautiful plane-tree lined lakeside promenade, and above all the church of San Pietro.
It is situated at the end of the Viale delle Rimembranze next to the cemetery. Inside there is a
fresco portraying the Adoration of the Three Kings (Adorazione dei Magi); it is attributed to
the Renaissance painter Bernardino Luini. The oldest part of the church is its Romanesque bell
tower from the eleventh century. Also worth a visit is the older centre of Luino, situated somewhat higher up, with narrow alleys with the houses jostling for space – many of them restored
and refurbished. The parish church of San Pietro e Paolo is also located in this part. Not far
away on the Piazza Libertà you come across several elegant palazzi from the eighteenth and
nineteenth centuries; among them the Palazzo Crivelli Serbelloni, now accommodating the
town hall. Other interesting sights can be found in the town library and the Museo Civico
housed in the Palazzo Verbania near the shore, including a small painting collection and
archaeological finds from the vicinity.
In the vicinity
Luino itself is situated at the mouth of the far-reaching, densely populated Travaglia Valley,
whereas Maccagno lies further north at the exit of the narrow, wooded Veddasca Valley. The
little town is divided into two by the river Giona, Maccagno-Inferiore and -Superiore. Adjoining
the small tourist harbour is the open space of the Piazza Roma, dominated by a medieval
tower, the so-called Torre imperiale. Visiting the church of Madonna della Punta (sixteenth
century) also rewards you with a breathtaking view onto Lago Maggiore and the Castelli di
Cannero, which are located on two tiny islands in front of the Piedmontese town of Cannero
Riviera. And more: Maccagno has a most charming lakeside promenade. A futurist bridge
leading across the Giona is the supporting structure for the Museo Civico. Various twentieth
century works of art have been shown here since 1979, among them by De Chirico, Fiume, Levi,
Parisi and Picasso. East of Maccagno in the Veddasco Valley is the little village of Monteviasco,
at an altitude of 3031 ft. You reach it either by a cableway from Mulini di Piero or on foot via
steps. Many of the old village buildings have been restored in their original styles and are now
holiday homes.

The town of Luino lies on a wide-stretching bay at the mouth of the Tresa. It has been the
economic centre of eastern Lago Maggiore at the latest since industrialisation and the railway network connection in the second half of the nineteenth century. Luino is renowned and
extremely popular far beyond its limits thanks to its market, which was sanctioned by Emperor
Charles V at the early date of 1541. Since then, myriads of stalls around the Piazza Garibaldi
have sold a wide assortment of wares, ranging from food and household articles to clothing
and leather ware. The township is especially proud not only of the two writers born here, Piero
Chiara and Vittorio Sereni, but also of Dario Fo, a freeman of their town, and holder of the
Nobel prize for literature.

The monastery of Santa Caterina del Sasso is indubitably one of the most beautiful and
popular sightseeing attractions on the Lombardian side of the lake. It lies between Arolo and
Reno on a rocky promontory above Lago Maggiore and is accessible by ship and by car. The
monastery itself can be viewed best from the water, but when you climb down the many steps
from the car park above the monastery, you are rewarded with a breathtaking view onto the
lake. According to legend, in the twelfth century a hermitage was situated on the spot where
the monastery is now, inhabited by an erstwhile rich merchant, Alberto Besozzi, who had made
a vow to become a hermit. On the other hand, there is historic verification that Dominicans
settled here in the early thirteenth century and built a small priory and oratory. In time, other
religious orders followed; reconstructions, extensions and artistic enhancements were carried
out. Ownership of the monastery passed to the surrounding parish churches in the nineteenth
century and since 1920, the complex of buildings only rarely opened its gates. After years of
neglect, ownership of the monastery was granted to the Province of Varese. The province had
it restored and has thus bequeathed a genuine treasure to the east shore of Lake Maggiore.

The tour of the site, which consists of three building complexes, begins with the Convento
meridionale. Of the former monastery rooms, the chapter house with its outstandingly beautiful fourteenth- and fifteenth-century frescoes is especially rewarding to visit. After crossing
a small courtyard, you next enter the Conventino, the small monastery, its Gothic colonnade
housing a danse macabre fresco dating from the seventeenth century. Finally we come to the
actual church adjoining the monastery, the Chiesa di Santa Caterina, with its Romanesque
church tower and an eighteenth-century Neapolitan organ. The church is dated 1587 and consists of several chapels, with an early date between the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries.
Notable among them are the chapels of Santa Caterina and Santa Maria Nova, and above
all the chapel of San Nicola with a fresco portraying Christus Pantokrator. Meanwhile, the
chapel of St. Alberto holds the mortal remains of the hermit. The oldest part of the church is
probably the Memorial Chapel located behind it.

Varese in the north-west of Lombardy at the foot of the massif of Campo dei Fiori has been the
capital of the province with the same name since 1927. The town’s past goes back to prehistoric times; it has been an important market town since the eleventh century, in later centuries
encouraging the growth of various other industries and trades. Varese is famous most of all for
its many gardens and parks, which is why the town was also called ‘città-giardino’ – garden
city – in the nineteenth century. Varese has “shared” the University of Insubria with Como
since 1998.

Sightseeing
Varese’s historic centre is for the most part situated within its former limits fortified in the
Middle Ages. The Basilica of San Vittore is on the central piazza and dominates the square
with its neo-classical façade and imposing baroque tower. The interior is memorable for the
high altar and the apse, and above all for the paintings by Lombardian masters. The baptistery, directly next to the basilica, was built between the twelfth and thirteenth centuries
on a previous building (8th /9th century); it contains very beautiful Gothic frescoes. Other
churches well worth a visit in the centre are San Antonio alla Motta, San Giuseppe and
the Santuario della Madonnina in Prato. Moreover, the visitor should not miss the Palazzo
Estense. Francesco III d’Este, the former governor of Lombardy – then ruled by Austria –commissioned Giuseppe Bianchi to build it between 1766 and 1771. A feature of great note is the
park behind the palazzo, in Italian style and known as the Giardini Estensi. From the park
you arrive at the adjoining gardens of the Villa Mirabello. The villa itself stands on a hill, a
vantage point for a wonderful view. Today it is the home of the Musei Civici, which contain a
prehistoric department, a historical section, a natural history collection and a painting gallery.
The Corso Matteotti is Varese’s popular promenade, a busy pedestrian precinct with wellpreserved palazzi and arcades, all in all a place where no one can resist the desire to stroll and
linger. From here you soon reach the former Benedictine convent of S. Antonio, a rewarding
destination above all for its cloisters and the former refectory, today the Sala Veratti. Orbiting
around the old centre of Varese is a group of seven Castellanze, once autonomous localities,
in the meantime now mostly part of the municipality. The Villa Menafoglio Litta Panza in the
Castellanza Biumo Superiore is not only an architectural jewel, but also contains an impressive collection of contemporary art. Not far from the Villa Panza is the Villa Ponti, today a
congress centre with gardens. There are other splendid villas and much green to be found in
the remaining six castellanze.
In the vicinity
Above the town near the wooded slopes of the Campo dei Fiori is the Sacro Monte, one of the
largest and most impressive Ways of the Cross in Italy and declared a World Heritage Site by
UNESCO in 2003. The procession route was laid out between 1605 and 1680. It is over a mile
long and leads from the Prima Cappella (1919 ft) to the church of Santa Maria del Monte
(2887 ft). All together 14 votive chapels line the way of contemplation; they are dedicated
to the Mysteries of the Rosary. Santa Maria del Monte, the centre of the place of pilgrimage,
shows stylistic elements ranging from the Romanesque to the baroque era. The climb up to
it is a rewarding experience, not least owing to the harmonious interplay of landscape and
architecture.
Stretching out between the rivers of Sesia and Ticino to
the north of Novara is the wine-growing region of Colline
Novaresi. The landscape here is one of hills, water courses,
meadows and woodland and reaches as far as the lower
Lago Maggiore and the southern section of Lago d’Orta.
But not only its natural beauty urgently recommends a visit
to this part of Piedmont, also its art and culture. Whether
Borgomanero, Romagnano Sesia or Ghemme: each of the
townships here has its own very individual cultural, folk, and
of course gastronomic traditions.
Many “monumental witnesses” testify to the past history
of the Novarese heights – well-constructed fortifications,
country oratories, places of refuge. From the culinary point
of view, the typical products of the region – apart from
vintage wines – are rice and gorgonzola cheese.
Novara itself is the capital of the province with the same
name and lies in East Piedmont in the middle of an enormous rice plain. From here it is about 62 miles to Turin and
around 31 miles to Milan. It is the second largest city in the
region and a popular destination for excursions from Lago
Maggiore.

Borgomanero was founded by the Novarese people in 1194 with a location to the north of their
own township as a kind of fortress playing a strategic role. When the building was finished in
the early thirteenth century, it received its name of Borgo Mainerio in honour of the city bailiff
of Novara, Jacopo Mainerio, who had commissioned its construction. Today, Borgomanero is a
flourishing centre of trade and industry, yet it has preserved its historical and artistic attractions.
Borgomanero Collegiata San Bartolomeo
Boca
Sightseeing
The Via San Giovanni leads from the very beautiful Villa Marazza into the town quarter of
San Rocco, the heart of antique Borgomanero. There is a remarkable fresco of the Blessed
Virgin where the road joins the historic Via Sanado. From here you soon reach the Corso Roma;
a market is held here every Friday, as has been the custom for five hundred years. Going further
you come to Piazza Martiri, the actual town centre. The façade of the Collegiate Church of
San Bartolomeo is of exceptional interest. Originally built in the twelfth century, the church
was extended several times in the subsequent centuries and finally given its valuable brick
adornment in the nineteenth century. Inside there is a wonderful triptych, dating from 1566, by
Varolti and Rapa, frescoes and paintings by Morazzone, and a magnificent baroque wooden
altar by Antonio Pini. The Oratory of San Leonardo with its beautiful frescoes dating from the
thirteenth century is the oldest church in the town. Erected in the late eleventh, at the latest
in the early twelfth, it once belonged to the township of San Leonardo, which, however, was
very soon assimilated into the new township after the founding of Borgomanero. The church
of San Leonardo is structured with a single nave and semi-circular apse. The façade and the
supporting columns are made of great ashlars, while the side walls and apse were built of
gravel. Additional rewarding sights await the visitor: the Palazzo d'Este, an old residence from
the fifteenth century; a medieval bridge called “del Torrione”, the palace of Vergano from the
fourteenth century and the Oratory of San Nicola alla Baraggiola, a rustic, pre-Romanesque
building with a stone bell tower.

Sight s e e ing
Sightseeing
The Castello-Ricetto dates from between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries. With circumvallation and moat, it was designed to protect the populace and their property from the permanent plundering and destruction caused by the fighting between the supporters of the emperor
on the one hand and those of the pope on the other. The whole complex covers an area of over
13,000 square yards, while the circumvallation is thirteen feet high and clearly visible on three
sides, although roads now follow the course of the moat and ditches. Round towers stood
at the north-west and south-west parts, only one of which has been preserved. Numerous
buildings can be found inside the fortress, grouped around various courtyards. The ground
storey - often adorned with striking arched portals - was mainly used as storage space for
food provisions, wine and so forth. Steps outside lead to the first floor, the residential section;
here there are traces of mural frescoes. A tour through the narrow alleyways of the fortress
is still a riveting experience. It has been refurbished in the meantime, shops and cafés have
been added. A rewarding experience can also be had in a visit to Ghemme's parish church,
(undergoing restauration) dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary and built over the grave of
Blessed Panacea (completed in 1700). The interior is imposing in size, and also resplendent
for its eighteenth-century frescoes and the marble altar; moreover it has eight side chapels
meriting special attention. The wonderful Scurolo of Blessed Panacea is a work by Ghemme's
renowned citizen, the architect Alessandro Antonelli. It holds the relics of the patron saint of
the village; a great feast is held in her honour on the first Friday in May.
Ghemme, Ricetto
In the vicinity
Rising up on a hillside vineyard in the direct vicinity of Ghemme is another castle, the fortress
of Cavenago. It was converted into a farm in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, but has
still retained its rectangular structure with three corner towers. Going into the main tower, now
altered for farming use, the first thing you see is an ancient well, 182 feet deep. Nor should you
miss the old oratory. It was built in the seventeenth century in the north tower and is dedicated
to St. Rose of Lima. Moreover there are many farmhouses and estates scattered on the heights
in the northern part of the Province of Novara and also on the rice plain; their architecture is
wonderfully adapted to their functions. Typical of this type of architecture are the country
mansions of Cascina Ferrera and Cascina Cattanea in the region surrounding Ghemme. The
former has three old sundials from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the latter is surrounded by a wall, almost like a fortress.
In the vicinity
West of Borgomanero surrounded by woodland and vineyards is the picturesque village of
Boca, well-known and beloved for its wine. Set off somewhat from the village we see the
monumental pilgrimage church del Crocifisso rising up, a work of the renowned architect
Alessandro Antonelli (completed in 1917). There was once a simple chapel on this spot with a
painting showing an angel catching the blood of the crucified Redeemer in a chalice. During the
course of time, the picture attracted more and more of the devout, especially as it was said to
have healed an epileptic child and rescued a tradesman, so it became necessary to build a new
church. The fortress of Montalbano can also be reached from Boca. There are still some interesting frescoes to be seen here. East of Borgomanero is the village of Gattico in beautiful and
exceptionally diverse countryside. It is a region of much Romanesque architecture, including
the ruins of the Basilica San Martino and many other churches – Santa Maria di Muggiano,
Sant’Andrea, Sant’Igino and more. Near the road from Borgomanero to Gattico you shouldn't
miss seeing the splendid, seventeenth-century Villa Leonardi and its English garden, and the
Oratory della Madonna di Campagna.

About 15 miles north of Novara is the town of Ghemme. Already settled in the fourth century
BC, in Roman times it quickly grew into an influential centre with the name of Agamium, and
this significance did not abate during the Middle Ages. The monumental fortress of CastelloRicetto in the town centre derives from the latter epoch. Today Ghemme is primarily known for
its high-quality wine of the same name, grown on the surrounding slopes.

East of Novara is the town of Galliate, where an enormous brick castle looms up in the centre: the building was begun in 1476 under the Sforzas, but later passed into the ownership of
Ludovico Il Moro, who had it converted into a handsome hunting lodge. The nature reserve of
Parco Naturale Valle del Ticino is at a convenient distance from Galliate. Meanwhile, one of
the most important monastery complexes in Piedmont for the history of art and architecture is
the Abbazia di San Nazzaro Sesia.

The Piedmontese city of Novara lies in the midst of a plain dominated by rice fields. The city
was settled long before the Romans came and in the first century BC elevated into a municipium, which during the Roman Empire developed into a flourishing centre. The remains
of the ring wall on Piazza Cavour still testify to this era today. Besides the sights and sites
relating to (art) history, Novara's historic city has other features to recommend it – with its
stately palazzi and beautiful colonnades it also offers a refreshing change from the stress
of the big city.
Novara Broletto
Novara and
the Vineyards
Sightseeing
A good starting point for discovering Novara is the neo-classical Piazza Martiri della
Libertà. The Castello Sforzesco looms up to the south of the square, still very impressive
momentarly under refurbishment. Lining the east side of the piazza is the Teatro Coccia,
opened in 1888, and finally, on its north side, is the Palazzo Orelli, also called Palazzo Borsa
– it used to house the agricultural exchange. The Via Fratelli Rosselli leads to the Duomo
Santa Maria Assunta (nineteenth century), designed in neo-classical style by Alessandro
Antonelli. The cathedral was built on a previous Romanesque church; the mosaic floor has
been preserved in the presbytery. The Baptistery rises up opposite, the oldest building in the
city (fourth/fifth century). The frescoes inside show scenes from the Apocalypse (eleventh
century), and the Last Judgement (fifteenth century). The adjoining cloisters are a genuine
treasure as well, not least because of the archaeological finds exhibited here (steles from
the second century BC, and more). On the first floor of the north wing other highly fascinating exhibits are on show in the Lapidary Museum. The Municipal Museum is situated in
the Broletto, a complex of buildings stemming from various epochs; it has an archaeological
department and a painting gallery. The former political centre constituted out of the Palazzi
del Podestà, dei Paratici, dei Referendari and dell’Arengo. Novara's most important church
is the Basilica di San Gaudenzio built in 1659 with architecture by Pellegrino Tibaldi. Its
dome is 397 feet high, the city's landmark, heralding from afar the approach to the city. It
is also a work of Alessandro Antonelli (completed in 1888) and crowned by a gilded figure
of Christ. Inside, one of its most interesting features is the Scurolo, a kind of ground-level
crypt, holding the mortal remains of Novara's patron saint, St. Gaudenzio. Furthermore,
the visitor can see outstanding works of religious art in the polyptych by Gaudenzio Ferrari
(c. 1516) in the Cappella della Natività, and numerous paintings from the sixteenth and
seventeenth centuries. Not far from the basilica is the Palazzo Faraggiana, now housing a
very interesting natural history museum; it contains works of taxidermy showing around
2500 species of animals from all over the world. Again only a few steps away we arrive on
the Corso Cavour, Novara's promenade along the route of the ancient Roman road and
lined with elegant houses and shops.

Romagnano Sesia is scarcely three miles away from Ghemme. Already settled by the Romans,
the village became a fief of the Marchesi di Romagnano in the early tenth century. It grew to
economic prosperity under the Visconti and in the eighteenth century was elevated to an independent municipality. Today Romagnano Sesia is notable among other things for the direct
sale of valuable cashmere textiles and wines.
Sightseeing
The Benedictine monastery of San Silvano was founded c. 1008; all that remains of it is the
so-called Cantina dei Santi. The two rooms are very remarkable: the first has wonderful fresco
cycle datable to the fifteenth century and extensively preserved. The paintings of biblical scenes are among the most important in the entire Province of Novara. The second room houses
an interesting collection of very ancient archaeological finds. Like the Cantina dei Santi, many
other buildings in the historic centre were built of gravel and pebbles taken from the riverbed
of the Sesia and rendered in herringbone pattern. The parish church of San Silvano was reconstructed several times until it received its present appearance in 1856. Inside, the visitor can see
two very old and fascinating liturgical objects: an early Christian sarcophagus from the fifth
century used as an altar and the stump of a votive column from the second to the third centuries. The church also has two works by Bernardino Lanino from the sixteenth century. We must
also mention the church of Madonna del Popolo; its dome is adorned with valuable baroque
frescoes by Tarquinio Grassi. The rampart tower of the Praetorium in the heart of the village
probably dates from 1466. Its lowest part appears to have belonged to an even older building,
possible to a previously existing fortress. The tower is the only remaining part of the fortress's
square construction; its interior grew into the historic village centre of Romagnano Sesia. The
visitor should also visit the remains of a medieval bridge from the village, which was destroyed
in 1223. Only three of a probable total of 60 arches are left from the ancient building, which
once spanned the river Sesia and connected the villages of Romagnano and Gattinara. They
now stand in a park quite a distance away from the river, which was re-routed in 1655 to safeguard the townships from floods. Rising up not far from the centre is the imposing Villa Caccia
on Monte Cucco. It was built by Alessandro Antonelli between 1842 and 1848 as the summer
residence of the Counts Caccia di Romentino. Today it houses the Museum of History and
Ethnography.
In the vicinity
About 2 miles south of Romagnano Sesia we encounter the small oratory of San Martino di
Breclema, full of interest and one of the oldest of its kind in the entire province. It dates from
the eleventh century and belonged to an ancient fortified village, the Castrum Breclema, which
was completely destroyed in the fourteenth century. Above the altar is a wonderful painting
showing the Madonna with St. Hilary. Some seventeenth-century documents mention that
the church was supposed to have been used as a hospital during times of war and epidemics.
Prato Sesia is situated on the hill of Sopramonte, north of Romagnano Sesia. Here you can
see the remains of a castle built in the fourteenth century by Bartolomeo Tornielli. Even today
we can recognise some sections of the brick portal wall and an old, very high tower (eleventh
of twelfth century). Nor should the visitor miss the small church of the Madonna in the castle
ruins, which has a fresco by Giovanni de Campo from the second half of the fifteenth century.

Parco Nazionale Val Grande
This national park in the province of Verbania is surrounded by Val Vigezzo, Val d ’Ossola, Val
Cannobina and Lago Maggiore. Its 15,000 hectares make it the largest wild life and nature
reserve in Italy. It is the only European region of this nature to be honoured by the global organisation Wilderness. The landscape here has remained wild and elemental. There are signed
walking paths leading the visitor into the region's depths.
Parco Naturale Alpe Veglia – Alpe Devero
Sheltering the nature park at the Swiss border between Val Divedro and Val Formazza are the
Alpe Veglia (5777 ft) and the Alpe Devero (5351 ft), also two alpine pastures of the Ossola
Valley. The landscape here is characterised by lakes, waterfalls and rivers. The park is renowned
above all for its rich mineral resources: 127 kinds of stone were counted here alone.
Monte Mesma, Sacro Monte di Orta e Torre di Buccione Nature Reserve
The nature reserves of Monte Mesma, Sacro Monte di Orta e Torre di Buccione in the southeastern part of Lago d'Orta are divided up by three hills. Remains of Middle Ages civilisation
have been preserved in an elemental landscape. The connection of architecture and nature makes
every walk or hike into an experience of a very special sort. www.parks.it/parco.sacro.monte.orta
Riserva Naturale Speciale Sacro M.te della SS. Trinità di Ghiffa
Ghiffa is a place of pilgrimage situated in a breathtaking spot above Lago Maggiore at an altitude of 1181 feet. The complex of buildings is baroque in style, its architecture inspired by the
places of pilgrimage Sacri Monti of Orta and Varese. The nature reserve is about 200 hectares
in area, extending along the sides of Monte Cargiago. It is combed through by numerous walking paths flanked by old stone walls. www.parks.it/riserva.sacro.monte.ghiffa
Riserva Naturale Sacro M.te Calvario di Domodossola
This nature reserve was initiated in 1987 by the region of Piedmont and stretches over the hills
of Mattarella. Starting from here the entire area of the Sacro Monte is protected – for example
an orientation cage was installed here for the observation of nocturnal predatory birds.
www.parks.it/riserva.sacro.monte.domodossola
Lagoni di Mercurago – Parchi Lago Maggiore
The nature park Lagoni di Mercurago near Arona is administered together with the nature
reserves of Fondotoce and Dormelletto by the Association of the Parks of Lago Maggiore. The
wetlands of which the Lagone is the most extensive, are of exceptional importance for the
fauna and rare genera of water and swamp flora.
General
Information
Gorges of Uriezzo
The gorges of Uriezzo near Baceno in the Antigorio Valley were formed during the Ice Age.
Today you can walk through three of these gorges on foot. The most fascinating the South
Gorge, 656 feet long and between 65 to 98 feet deep, called “Grave of Uriezzo” by the locals.
Incidentally, the region is also an interesting eco-system: many types of plants can be found
here that scarcely exist anywhere else, above all mosses and ferns.

Monte Fenera Nature Reserve
The park is named after the mighty and solitary Mount Fenera on the reliefs of Lower Valsesia.
Its profile is clearly recognisable from the Novarese and Vercellese plains. The nature reserve
territory is an ideal choice for an alternative holiday and has a favourable central position with
the rice plains to the south, the Upper Valsesia, the Mt. Rosa, and Lakes Orta and Maggiore to
the North. www.parks.it/parco.monte.fenera

the city and lake of Varese, forming the Campo dei Fiori Natural Park. The highest point of the
massif is the Paradiso peak (3727 ft.). The picturesque village of S. Maria del Monte, landmark
of the city of Varese, lies on top of the Sacro Monte (2675 ft.) and is also part of the Reserve.

Lago d ’Orta and the island of San Giulio
Description
One of the treasures of the entire region lies in Lago d'Orta, which is surrounded by a green
and gentle landscape situated between Valsesia and Lago Maggiore: Isola di San Giulio.
The island is rich in tradition and still impresses today through its mystical aura. The town
of Orta San Giulio opposite the island forms the nucleus of the entire Orta lake. The town
