Lecco Italy

Lecco is a city in Lombardy, northern Italy, north of Milan, the capital of the province of Lecco. It lies at the end of the south-eastern branch of Lake Como. The Bergamo Alps rise to the north and east. The lake narrows to form the river Adda, so bridges were built to improve road communications with Como and Milan. There are four bridges crossing the river Adda in Lecco: the Azzone Visconti Bridge (1336–1338), the Kennedy Bridge (1956) and theAlessandro Manzoni Bridge (1985) and a railroad bridge. The Province of Lecco is composed of ancient villages and landscapes. The Lariana Abbey, in addition to its grassy shores, is the location for the engrossing Silk Museum. The Church of San Giorgio in Mandello del Lario is outstanding and represents a remarkable art gallery from Medieval times. The Guzzi Moto Museum in Mandello recounts the history of this locally-manufactured motor bike. The Abbey is an obligatory stop, along with the Fuentes and Montecchio Forts that evidence the great military strategic importance of the area.
