Calcinate, Administrative commune in Lombardy, Italy
Calcinate is a commune in the Province of Bergamo that sits between fields and industrial zones in the Lombard plain. The settlement clusters around a central square, with streets leading to residential neighborhoods, churches and smaller manufacturing sites.
The commune was first recorded in the twelfth century and grew into a farming center over the following centuries. Under Venetian rule from the fifteenth century onward, farmsteads and trade routes developed until the Napoleonic period.
The parish church of Santa Maria Assunta rises above the main square with its baroque facade, while locals gather for Sunday services and feast days throughout the year. Older residents still remember when the bell tower marked the rhythm of daily life in the fields and workshops.
Visitors reach the commune via roads connecting it to Bergamo and other towns in the province. A walk through the center reveals the church, smaller shops and residential streets that can be explored on foot in under an hour.
In the fields around the commune, farmers still grow corn and fodder crops, harvesting them with tractors and delivering to nearby farms. Side roads lead to old farmsteads where barns and stables stand next to newer houses.
