Morbegno, Medieval commune in Valtellina Valley, Italy

Streets of Morbegno wind through dense clusters of centuries-old buildings, with stone walls and iron-wrought balconies defining the architectural character of this settlement.

The strategic location near San Marco Pass established Morbegno as a vital trade route connecting northern Europe to other regions during medieval commercial exchanges.

The Palazzo Malacrida stands as a primary example of Valtellina rococo architecture, featuring detailed frescoes and ornate decorations throughout its first-floor ballroom.

Located at 242 meters elevation in the Province of Sondrio, Morbegno provides direct access to cycling trails and outdoor activities in the surrounding Alpine landscape.

The town received the Alpine Town of the Year award in 2019, recognizing its commitment to sustainable development and preservation of mountain traditions.
