Montorfano is a small village named after the mountain that overlooks it, a limestone outcrop so named because it rises isolated from the pre-Alpine mountain range behind it. Legend has it that the tears of the mountain, shed for its solitude, gave rise to a body of water, Lake Montorfano, one of the smaller lakes in Brianza.
