Sondrio, Administrative center in Valtellina, Italy

Founded as a Roman military camp, the settlement transformed into a permanent town during the Lombard period when it received the name Sundrium.
The central Garibaldi Square contains the Palazzo Sassi, which now functions as the Art and History Museum displaying regional artifacts.
