Castione della Presolana, Mountain commune in Province of Bergamo, Italy
Castione della Presolana is a mountain commune in the Province of Bergamo situated at 986 meters elevation with terrain shaped by forested slopes and alpine meadows. The settlement spreads across mountainous land characterized by steep valleys and the presence of traditional stone buildings typical of Lombard mountain villages.
The settlement began as a farming community rooted in mountain agriculture, sustaining itself through generations of local work. The early 20th century brought architectural changes when Art Nouveau villas were built, transforming it into a tourist destination.
The Lantana Sanctuary from the 15th century displays frescoes that reflect the artistic tradition of the area. Visitors can observe the religious artworks on the walls, created by local artists who shaped the spiritual life of their community.
Hiking trails are available throughout the mountains, while winter sports facilities operate during the snowy season. The location is accessible by road from Milan and Bergamo year-round, making it easy to reach by car.
The museum 'Le Macine' houses a collection of old farming tools and machines that show how people worked the land in earlier times. The exhibits reveal the practical methods that generations of residents used to survive and thrive in this mountain setting.
