pleasant emotions to those who love the outdoors.
The tiny old town is characterized by the Collegiate Church of San Lorenzo,
which is very impressive with its bell tower of Lombardy and admirable
forms a valuable portal of 1592.
A piece of history the old "punt de sass," Roman, who before
the flood of 1817, which diverted the river Adda, was used to connect
to Stazzona Villa, a village that still preserves archaeological remains
which prove the name , "state", or stop along the center of
an ancient thoroughfare.

or in Pian di Gembro, Narutale Reserve, where the cross country skiers
can practice this sport in the winter, while in summer the ancient bog
dating last ice age, does not disappoint lovers of botany.
