About Baveno

Baveno is a small town located on the west shore of Lago Maggiore in the province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, part of Piedmont, northern Italy.

The city is rich in history, traditions and culture. There are plenty of archaeological, artistic and architectural testimonies: from the findings of the ‘neolithic’ age to the Roman architecture witnessed in the monumental complex of the Provostal Church in the centre.

Baveno is famous for its fine pink granite, which has been used for numerous buildings throughout the world. Some of these are the Arch of Peace and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele in Milan, the columns of L’Opéra in Paris, the Karlskirche (Church of St Charles) in Vienna, the monument to Christopher Columbus in New York, and the Royal Palace in Bangkok. A monument on the lakefront to the “picasass”, the local stonemasons, pays tribute to the workers whose skills have made Baveno famous all over the world.

To the period between 1800 and 1900 belong the luxurious villas surrounded by wonderful naturalistic English parks and gardens, built for the elite that enjoyed making Baveno their summer retreat.

The privileged geographical position of Baveno, the first city onto the lake for people arriving from Northern Europe and the last for those returning back home passing through the Simplon Pass, and the many attractions it offers, make of it a perfect place for a break.
