Highlight • Structure

Today it wasn't open at all 😕!
Direct access by car is only possible between Easter and October on Sundays between 10:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m., when the barriers are opened for visits to the Chiesa San Maurizio. At any other time you have to hike at least a kilometer up.

Minaret of Consonno

Highlight • Monument

Much has already been said about the commercial and entertainment buildings in the most varied architectural forms built in the 70s to recall "Las Vegas". An Arabian shopping arcade with a minaret was built, with small holiday apartments on the top floor, a Chinese pagoda, a medieval castle as an entrance gate, as well as a luxury hotel (the "Hotel Plaza"). The hill in front of the town was also leveled to improve the panoramic view towards the Resegone, and all this for what? ... to leave a "Ghost Town" that still has its charm but is just a large ruin abandoned in the middle of nowhere.

Abandoned Village of Consonno

Highlight • Settlement

Consonno is a ghost town in Lombardy, known as the "failed Las Vegas" of Italy. Born from an ancient settlement, its transformation began in the 1960s when the entrepreneur Mario Bagno purchased it, aspiring to create a tourist center. Despite brief popularity, natural disasters and failed projects left it abandoned. Today, it is a patchwork of abandoned and graffitied buildings, evoking a post-apocalyptic atmosphere. The idea of demolishing it again is being considered.

Consonno Minaret and Abandoned Amusement Park

Highlight • Monument

This place was once considered a "City of Toys", due to a landslide it collapsed and from that moment on it became a ghost town.

Church of San Maurizio of Consonno

Highlight • Religious Site

It was the church of the municipality of Cosonno and is today the only building that has not suffered degradation after the abandonment of the eccentric structure built by Count Mario Bagno who wanted to transform this small village into a mecca of gambling and perdition.

Consonno Ghost Town

Highlight • Settlement

Ghost town in the Brianza hills. It housed a 'City of Toys' which was valued in the 1960s by an entrepreneur. A landslide on the slope leading to the town made the place inaccessible and condemned it to its ruin.
