Lumellogno
Welcome to Lumellogno!
Hello everyone, friends! Today I'll talk to you about a fraction of the municipality of Novara in Piedmont, called Lumellogno. Are you ready to discover what makes this place so special?
Geography of Lumellogno
Located on the right of the Agogna stream, Lumellogno is a small village 4.67 km southwest of Novara. With a population of 1,337 inhabitants, it is the perfect place for those seeking peace and quiet, away from the chaos of the city. Its elevation of 138 m above sea level makes it an ideal destination for a pleasant walk with a panoramic view.
Monuments of Lumellogno
But let's talk about monuments, because there is so much to see here. One of the unmissable places is the parish church dedicated to Saints Hippolytus and Cassian, where you can admire Tanzio da Varallo's canvas entitled "Madonna with Child Adored by Saints Dominic and Francis." A priceless artistic treasure.
Curiosities and Honors
But did you know that Pietro Lombardo, the famous theologian and bishop of Paris in the 12th century, could be originally from Lumellogno? A curiosity that makes this place even more interesting. In addition, Lumellogno was also certified as one of the most committed and active realities against fascism with the gold medal of antifascism.
Informative Notes and Bibliography
If you want to know more, I recommend you to take a look at the informative notes and bibliography, which could prove to be precious sources. For example, it will be interesting to read the book "Lumellogno 15-16 July 1922. Non-Italian village" by Carlo Migliavacca.
And that was my story about Lumellogno, I hope I have been helpful in offering you some information about this small and charming Piedmontese village. If you pass through here, don't forget to visit it. See you soon!
