Verbania

Built around the lakeside settlements of Intra, Pallanza and Suna, Verbania grew into the capital of the Province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola. The city occupies a stretch of Lake Maggiore’s western shore, where the water opens south towards the Borromean Islands and north towards Alpine valleys. Intra retains the commercial character of a historic lake port, while Pallanza is associated with Villa Taranto, whose botanical gardens were created by Scottish captain Neil McEacharn in the 1930s. Verbania was established as a municipality in 1939, bringing Intra and Pallanza together. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Piedmont.
