Spend a day at the museum, visiting the must see for art lovers and discovering local history and culture. Plan a cultural break to enjoy contemporary art works, sculptures, frescos but also the local industrial tradition, which is really important in our land. 

Of the ten UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Lombardy, Varese has more than any other province with four: Sacro Monte, Monte San Giorgio, the Castelseprio-Torba Archaeological Park and Isolino Virginia.

Sacro Monte di Varese (Sacred Mountain of Varese) is a complex that includes Via Sacra (holy road), a cobbled devotional road that passes by fourteen chapels as it climbs the mountain. Skilfully integrated into the surrounding countryside, the Via Sacra takes to the top of the mountain at the Santa Maria del Monte Sanctuary.

A considerable cultural and artistic heritage of the finest quality: welcome to the land of Vares, where you can travel between art and culture. 

There are so many monuments to visit here, from the beautiful Rocca Borromeo in Angera, that overlooks Lake Maggiore, to the ancient castels situated between the green valleys of the province.
