Lake Como and its territory
LAKE COMO
Art and Cultura
Discovering Lake Como, among temptations and seductions.
A barrier of violet clouds covers the sky, it is drizzling and a little way over there is a clear pach of blue sky.
Dark woods, variegated by young trees.
And, lower down, the lightly ruffled water, of an extremely pale silver-green colour. That's the way this Lake is.
Here are some suggestions of things to do and places to visit, but there’s much more you will discover by yourself.
COMO CITY
You cannot miss a trip to the centre of Como.
The narrow streets of the historic centre, the numbers of monuments, the cultural and historical traditions make the city a place to discover.
Discover Como and its lake, museums, parks, villas and what makes this place so special.
How to spend a great time in town and make the best out of it. How to reach Como and move around.

L'ISOLA COMACINA
“Among the most interesting archaeological sites in northern Italy in the early middle ages”
Starting from the Antiquarium Museum, near which you can visit the Romanesque church of St. Mary Magdalene with it’s famous Gothic tower, you embark on the waters of the lake, crossing the so-called “Zoca de l’oli” to reach the Comacina Island.
The only Island on Lake Como, was the protagonist of the local history in Roman and Medieval times, resulting in a Roman military, a political centre, and one of the most important religious centres of diocese.
