Somma Lombardo

Few cities in Lombardy have a history as closely tied to the Visconti di San Vito family as Somma Lombardo. On the region’s western edge, the town stands near the Ticino River and the woodlands of the Ticino Valley, where water, farmland and long-established routes shape the terrain between Milan and Lake Maggiore. Its historic centre is marked by Castello Visconti di San Vito, a fortified residence developed over several centuries; its courtyards and towers recall the standing of the local Visconti line. Somma Lombardo is also close to Milan Malpensa Airport, placing a historic town within one of northern Italy’s busiest transport corridors.
