Historic village, in a splendid landscape between lake and mountains, Cannobio is the first town that tourists from Northern Europe meet on Lake Maggiore. In the historic center there are numerous architectural buildings: the core of the fourteenth-century bell tower and Palazzo della Ragione (1291), Casa Pironi, an elegant medieval building and the facades of the Omacini lakefront. For the quality of the water and the positive environmental characteristics, from 2002 to 2007 Cannobio was awarded the Blue Flag, a prestigious international recognition.
