Originally built in 1905 with neo-medieval eclectic architecture, the building housed the offices of customs and land registry. Since people visited here to pay their taxes, it led to the complex being nicknamed the “Palace of Fears” (Palazzo delle Paure). This historic palace occupies a part of the old city walls and now serves as Lecco’s cultural center and often hosts events and art exhibitions of local and national artists.

The monument is a marble sculpture built in 1927 that celebrates the Lecco geologist and naturalist who lived between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It was him who founded the civic museums of Lecco.

The San Nicolo church is one of the main places of worship in Lecco. It is located near the city center of Lecco, overlooking the lake from a short height. Basilica di San Nicolo has ancient roots with origins dating back to the XI century. During the following centuries it was expanded and underwent major restorations. The church has beautiful frescoes adorning its walls and a bell tower that was added later.

The bell tower of Lecco is an iconic symbol of Lecco with Monte Resegone in the background and is right next to the church and is fondly called the “matitone” (pencil) due to its similar appearance. At 96 meters, it is one of the tallest bell towers in Europe and the second tallest in Italy. The climb to reach the top is on foot with about 400 stairs.

The walk along the picturesque lakeside promenade of Lecco offers beautiful views of Lake Como and the surrounding mountains. Stop at the monument of Antonio Stoppani, a famous abbot, geologist and patriot from Lecco who wrote the "Bel Paese".

The church dates back to the thirteenth century, when it was known as the church of San Calimero. It became the seat of the confraternity of the Disciplini of Santa Marta towards the end of the fourteenth century.

A trace of the ancient city castle remains on Piazza XX Settembre: the Torre Viscontea. Its name is linked to that of Matteo Visconti, who had it built in 1296 and it was part of the city walls. The first floor is now used for temporary exhibitions.

The statue dates back to 1884 and is dedicated to Giuseppe Garibaldi, who came to the city four times.

The theater, dated 1844, was built in a neoclassical style based on a design by Giuseppe Bovara. It hosted theatrical performances and concerts and was particularly appreciated for its excellent internal acoustics.

The statue , work of Francesco Confalonieri, was inaugurated in 1891 and commemorates the most celebrated personality in Lecco: the famous writer Alessandro Manzoni who wrote "I promessi Sposi (The Betrothed).

The sanctuary was built in neo-Romanesque style in 1918 as a tribute to the fallen of the First World War. The 61 meter high bell tower has a three-metre iron cross which, inside, houses a relic of the cross on which Jesus was crucified.

The monument is dedicated to the fallen of the First World War. It was built in 1926 by Giannino Castiglioni, who also worked on the door of the Milan cathedral and occupies a prominent place on the Lake.

Ponte Azzone Visconti, also called Ponte Vecchio, is a 14th-century bridge across the River Adda in Lecco. The bridge was built under the direction of Azzone Visconti, the Lord of Milan.
