From May 4th, 15 months of construction are then planned with major disruptions to the area's traffic. A situation that greatly worries mayors, citizens, and various political forces who have asked Anas and the Region to study countermeasures to limit traffic problems as much as possible, not only in the Brivio and Brianza area, but also in the nearby Valle San Martino along the connections between Lecco and Bergamo. -- Ponte di Brivio, construction site approaches: alternating one-way traffic in time slots is activated https://www.leccotoday.it/attualita/ponte-di-brivio-senso-unico-alternato-fasce-orarie-.html © LeccoToday

A valuable 17th-century monument of Lombard Baroque, but also a bulwark that rises in a panoramic position overlooking the Adda Valley in Imbersago, in the province of Lecco. A perfect blend of religious devotion, commemoration of a mystical past, and immersion in lush nature, a symbol of vitality and timeless beauty. The history of the Sanctuary of Imbersago is rooted in a past of apparitions and miraculous events. It all began on May 9, 1617, when three shepherds who were grazing their flock in the woods saw a celestial figure among dazzling lights and harmonious melodies on the three large chestnut trees that stood around the Sorgente del Lupo (so named for the animals that roamed there). At that point, Pietro, one of the children, with great wonder, spotted and picked up a ripe hedgehog, an unlikely event in the middle of spring. And for all the people, this represented the prodigious sign that the Blessed Virgin wished to be honored in that very place. From here, from this miraculous vision, began the devotion to the Madonna del Bosco, also known as Madonna del Riccio, referring precisely to the miracle just narrated, or Madonna dei Miracoli di Imbersago.

The beauty of the views will reward you for all your efforts.
