The Valmalenco is known and appreciated above all for its natural beauty and its minerals. Less well-known is its vast history, which is not always so obvious to the visitor, but is nonetheless of great significance.

The centuries-old history of the valley, the vast cultural and human heritage, as well as the precious artistic traces scattered across the territory over time, still tell their story in important doumentary, artistic, architectural and ethnographic evidence.

The Ecomuseum is an important instrument to make these traces known and give them added value for people to discover their roots and local identity.
