What see

Visconteo Castle
  • 1 Visconteo Castle, 39 346 8628470. Ecb copyright.svgfull € 7. Simple icon time.svgFirst and third Sunday of each month - from 10:00 to 12:00 and from 14:00 to 18:30. The current structure dates back to the beginning of the fourteenth century, when it was built in place of a previous defensive construction that should have risen near the church dedicated to Saints Nazario and Celso. It was in fact customary for the early medieval fortifications of the Bergamo plain to be built alongside sacred buildings, at the time at the center of popular life. And, like most of the castles of that period, it was abandoned and repositioned not far between the end of the 13th and the beginning of the 14th century in the first free building area on the edge of the town.
  • 2 Church of SS. Nazario and Celso.


Events and parties

  • Festival of the Madonna del Rosario (in September).
