Locarno Essentials

Locarno's heritage spans from the medieval Castello Visconteo to the 15th-century Sanctuary of the Madonna del Sasso, perched on a rocky outcrop above the city. The Old Town features Baroque architecture like the Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta, while the nearby Muralto district houses the Romanesque Collegiata di San Vittore. Modern cultural landmarks include the PalaCinema, home to the Locarno Film Festival, and the Ghisla Art Collection. For panoramic views, the Cardada suspension bridge extends over the landscape, offering vistas of Lake Maggiore and the Alps.
