Great example of a medieval village with many preserved architectural elements that can be experienced on foot without the bustle of vehicle traffic. Of particular interest is the parish church St. Tecla and Villa Pliniana.
The lakeside town of Torno is situated within the Province of Como in Lombardy and has a population of around 1,000. Torno's centrepiece is the little port area known as the Porticciolo whose brightly-coloured buildings and cafes overlook Lake Como.
It stands at an elevation of 225 metres above sea level and has its own ferry imbarcadero linking it to other towns around
The lakeside town of Torno is situated within the Province of Como in Lombardy and has a population of around 1,000. Torno's centrepiece is the little port area known as the Porticciolo whose brightly-coloured buildings and cafes overlook Lake Como.
It stands at an elevation of 225 metres above sea level and has its own ferry imbarcadero linking it to other towns around the lake.
The centre of the village is pedestrianised with a small car park situated just off the main road. From the car park, it's a 5 minute walk down to the Porticciolo, the beautiful port which takes the main focus. Before walking down to the Porticciolo however, it's worth taking a few steps in the opposite direction where the Romanesque bell tower of the Chiesa di San Giovanni Battista del Chiodo can be found.
There are in fact two bell towers in Torno, the second of which forms part of the Chiesa di Santa Tecla in the Porticciolo, with the church itself dating back to the twelfth century. It's possible to walk the whole way around the port with a tree-lined walkway at the edge of the lake and colourful flowers blooming during the summer months. In one corner of the Porticciolo there's a bar restaurant called Bar Italia which is the perfect place to stop and admire the views for a while.
