Palazzo Delle PaurePass-by Only
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.
Monumento a Mario CermenatiPass-by Only
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.
