DONGO
Dongo is an active center of the northwest Lario. The oldest inhabited nucleus rose in an elevated position where there is the hamlet of Martinico. The center expanded into the plain crossed by the Albano stream, where the industrial zone developed.
The village enjoys a wonderful view to Bellagio to the south, and towards Gravedona and the end of Lake Como to the north. The panorama is always very wide: wonderful sunsets, when the Mesolcine Pre-Alps take on pink and purple luminescences while the lake and the woods are already covered with semi-darkness.
There is a lakeside promenade with bike path where you can get to Sorico.Among the buildings stands the neoclassical Manzi today town hall and home to the Museum of the end of the War, palace built by Pietro Gilardoni (1824)a pupil of Pollak, whose interior is richly decorated with frescoes from the Appiani school. Near the bridge over the Albano we find the Sanctuary of the Madonna delle Lacrime dating back to the year 1500, Madonna venerated as miraculous.
Following to the left of the Town Hall, we reach the Romanesque church of Santa Maria di Martinico, built between the XI and the XII century, Inside there is a nave closed by a semicircular apse, among the sacred furnishings, a silver-gilt astile cross by Francesco di Gregorio of 1513. Upstream of the church, a walk of about 30′ minutes through the village of Barbignano, leads to the Sanctuary of San Gottardo patron of Dongo, inside which there is an altarpiece by Gian Giacomo Barbelli. There are beautiful houses for sale in Dongo and the real estate market is booming.
