Historic center of Chiavenna

Highlight • Historical Site

Ancient facades with paintings of great charm and significant importance, fountains and portals in soapstone, decorated with floral and geometric motifs, are the elements that characterize the fascinating historic center of Chiavenna.

There are numerous loggias that overlook the Mera river and the architectural preciousness to be discovered wandering through the streets of the village; hidden courtyards and gardens such as the Córt di àsen represent characteristic corners that have remained intact over time.

An historic centre, dating back to the 16th century, already surrounded by Sforza walls, still partly visible, which bears witness to how rich and important Chiavenna was at the time of great trade with central Europe.

Cyclopedestrian Bridge over the Liro River

Highlight • Bridge

The Valchiavenna cycle path is a fascinating 40 km route that goes from Colico to the Swiss border (Val Bregaglia), passing through suggestive places such as Chiavenna, Piuro with its archaeological excavations, the Acquafraggia waterfalls and the Palazzo Vertemate Franchi. The route reflects the fusion of two cultures, offering a Central European atmosphere. In 2022, the Valchiavenna Cycle Path won 3rd prize at the Italian Green Road Awards.

Church of San Antonio d'Albareda and View over the Valchiavenna

Highlight • Religious Site

At the church of San Antonio a break is obligatory: there is a fountain and a refreshment point with benches and tables for having a packed snack and for taking a breath, enjoying the wonderful view to the east of Pizzo di Prata (il Pizzone ) and to the south the lower Valchiavenna as far as Lake Mezzola and the top of Mount Legnone.
