The magic of the heavenly vault in Palazzo Belgiojoso<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Palazzo Belgiojoso <\/strong>is a historic building that houses the Natural History Museum, the Archaeological Museum, the Historical Museum<\/strong> and the city\u2019s Planetarium<\/strong>: each of them offers immersion in various eras and disciplines, which range from the exhibitions of archaeological finds to nature dioramas that enchant adults and children alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Planetarium, in particular, is an unmissable experience for anyone who wants to discover the wonders of the sky: during the year, events are organised both for adults and children<\/strong>, such as projections in the dome and observation evenings to discover scientific curiosities about the constellations, planets and galaxies that populate the celestial vault!<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.leccotourism.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/DSCF3349-Enhanced-NR.jpg\")

The Visconti Tower: evidence of Lecco in the Middle Ages<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Visconti Tower<\/strong> in Piazza XX Settembre was the main tower of the castle<\/strong> erected by Azzone Visconti in the 14th<\/sup> century. Restored by Giuseppe Bovara in 1816, the Tower housed the city’s prison, before being converted in 1932 into a Civic Museum.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\nToday, the tower is open to visitors during temporary exhibitions<\/strong> and has become a major attraction for those who want to discover the history and culture of the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.leccotourism.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/12.jpg\")

A journey back in time along a silk thread! <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lecco\u2019s past is closely linked to silk spinning<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIn Garlate<\/strong>, in the ABEGG Silk Museum<\/strong>, housed in an eighteenth-century spinning mill on the shore of the lake, admire the \u201chistoric mulberry grove\u201d with around sixty trees, essential for breeding silk worms. The museum\u2019s collection includes silk-throwing machines and a hydraulic circular silk-throwing machine of 1815, capable of throwing hundreds of threads at the same time. <\/p>\n\n\n\nIn Abbadia Lariana, <\/strong>in the Monti Civic Silk Museum<\/strong>, located in a majestic nineteenth-century mill, there are original fittings and machines, including a silk-throwing machine with a diameter of 5 metres and 11 metres tall with 972 spindles, an extraordinary size for silk-processing. <\/p>\n\n\n\nA visit here is a journey through the history of silk, which skilfully weaves together ancient knowledge and the curiosity of the present: an experience that reawakens the fascination of a timeless art. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
