Lover

A small community in Trentino

Hello friends, today I will tell you about a small hamlet called Lover. This location is in Trentino Alto-Adige, in the autonomous province of Trento, and is a fraction of the municipality of Campodenno. The name Lover in the Non valley dialect is pronounced 'Lóer'.

A bit of history

Lover had an autonomous history until 1928, when the municipality joined Denno. In the past, this area was populated by farmers and artisans who worked mainly in the production of fabrics. In fact, this area was renowned for linen and cotton fabric production.

Lover: a small Trentino community amidst history, nature, and culture.

Places of interest to visit

If you decide to visit this area, I recommend taking a walk in the main square where you will find the Immaculate Conception church, the parish church of the municipality of Campodenno. This religious building dates back to the 14th century and is an interesting example of architecture from that period.

Curiosities and information

If you are passionate about history, you may be interested to know that Lover is part of a pastoral community called "High Val di Non Community" together with other fractions such as Smarano and Sarnonico. In this area, besides textile production, agriculture has been one of the most important economic activities. Today, however, the area is part of a popular tourist destination loved by visitors seeking mountain landscapes, unspoilt nature, and good food.

Other projects

I remind you that Lover is part of the municipality of Campodenno and was an autonomous community until 1928. If you are curious to discover other interesting locations in Trentino Alto-Adige, I suggest visiting the nearby city of Trento or the famous ski resort of Madonna di Campiglio, which is only a few hours' drive from here.

In conclusion, if you decide to visit Lover, I recommend taking a walk in the main square, admiring the Immaculate church, and immersing yourself in the life of this small Trentino community. I hope you enjoyed this brief story about the history and beauties of Lover and invite you to visit this wonderful area!
