Il quartiere Guicciardi

A Ponte in Valtellina per scoprire le case appartenute all’illustre famiglia Guicciardi,
con tappa alla chiesetta del Buon Consiglio, all’antica Farmacia Garlaschelli e alla corte di palazzo Guicciardi Azzola, su cui prospetta uno dei loggiati rinascimentali più belli di Ponte. Il breve percorso si snoda lungo via Enrico Guicciardi fino al palazzo appartenuto ai Guicciardi del ramo dei Cavalieri di S. Stefano, in Via Ginnasio.

Art & Culture

The perfect mix between rural roots and fine arts, the area around Sondrio is rich in hidden treasures. From the city of Sondrio, the result of a perfect union between buildings of different periods and styles, to the borroughs where - close to rural courtyards - noble houses, palaces and churches were raised and skillfully embellished by painters and wood artists.

Ponte in Valtellina

Ponte in an ancient village: two engraved boulders were found in Castionetto (part of Chiuro) and two in Chiuro, proving the existence of human settlements in the Prehistoric era.

Pedü

Hand made by the women in Lanzada, Pedü were by far the most common footwear in Valmalenco until the 1950s.

Pezzotti from Valtellina

Perhaps the most famous artisan product from Valtellina, the “pezzotto” is a very resistant fabric made using scraps of fabric, hand-woven at the loom.
