Lecco

Tucked along the southeastern branch of Lake Como, Lecco is a place whose character is shaped by the meeting of water and steep Alpine foothills. The Adda River leaves the lake here, while Mount Resegone’s serrated profile and the Grigna massif define the horizon above the Lombard city. Lecco is closely associated with Alessandro Manzoni: the opening chapters of his novel The Betrothed are set in this area, and the writer’s legacy is traced through local sites and museums. The 14th-century Azzone Visconti Bridge still crosses the Adda, linking the historic town with its wider lakeside setting.
