On the western shore of Lake Como rises Moltrasio, a village made unique by the beautiful residences of famous people, its gardens, its mild and sunny climate, and its enchanting panorama.
Moltrasio is of very ancient origin, as evidenced by the discovery of a copper ax dating back to about 2000-2500.
What to visit
Among the religious buildings, the parish church of San Martino is worth a visit, which houses numerous relics, including the Holy Thorn, a fragment of the Holy Crown.
Also worth visiting is the Church of Sant'Agata with its frescoes and the Chapel of San Rocco on the lake shore.
Among the residences, the famous Villa Passalacqua deserves a look.
Villa Passalacqua is a historic building built on land originally owned by Pope Innocent XI. Over the centuries, this home has welcomed brilliant minds from music, reading, art, and politics.
In 1829, Vincenzo Bellini lived there and composed Norma and La Sonnambula here.
Today, the villa has become a hotel. The names of the suites pay homage to the building's grand past.
