Alzano Lombardo, Municipality in Province of Bergamo, Italy
Alzano Lombardo is a municipality in the Province of Bergamo situated at 304 meters elevation in Lombardy. The town divides into seven districts including Alzano Sopra, Nese, Monte di Nese, Burro, Busa, Brumano, and Olera.
The community received city status through a presidential decree in 1991, marking an important shift from its traditional commune structure. This administrative change represented a turning point in the local history.
The Basilica of San Martino shapes the town's appearance and holds religious artworks that reflect local faith traditions. The Museum of Religious Art displays objects that matter to the community.
The terrain here is hilly with a valley running from west to east through the area. Walking or driving between the seven districts works well since they are spread out across the landscape.
The place maintains a strong connection to religious art traditions visible in its museums and basilica. This collection of local sacred works sets it apart from many other communities in the region.
