Beyond the Scenery, Explore the Historical Side of Como
Como is more than just its lake and mountains. It is home to an intriguing mix of several conspicuous and proud historical landmarks. And why not? Originally a Celtic settlement, Como dates back to the 1st century Bronze Age.
Through the years, the city has witnessed eras of the Roman Empire, the Middle Ages, French acquisition, and Austrian conquest. It is why Como is an unparalleled concoction of culture and a variety of architectural styles. The most famous historical venues Ettore will introduce you to include:
The 12th-century Porta Torre Medieval Fortress, the 40m high edifice with arches that was once the check-point and entrance for people visiting from Milan.
The 14th-century Duomo di Como, Italy’s last Gothic cathedral that also flaunts the 18th-century baroque addition of the pastel-hued Rococo Cupola.
The picturesque Piazza Cavour, that sits right on the harbor and offers a sweeping view of Lake Como.
You can depend on your tour guide to show you gasp-inducing views and eye-widening insights into all these places.
Whether you book an interactive livestream virtual tour with Ettore or a traditional tour, you can expect a friendly, exciting tour of popular Como tourist attractions as well as hidden, intriguing details that remain over overlooked by most.
