About Mura di Como

Fortifications, Defensive Walls, Historic, Gardens And Parks, Urban Environment, Cultural, Interesting Places

Le mura di Como, che circondano su tre lati il centro storico cittadino, sono ancora ben conservate per il 70% del perimetro originario e risalgono al periodo medievale.

Vennero costruite per la prima volta su iniziativa di Giulio Cesare, nella prima metà del I secolo a.C. circa 20 metri all'interno delle strutture oggi visibili. Questi presidi facevano parte di una complessa struttura difensiva intesa a coprire gli accessi a Milano ed alla pianura padana dalle Alpi centrali, che comprendeva, fra gli altri, il Castel Baradello, le fortificazioni dell'Isola Comacina, le strutture del Buco del piombo e le primitive fortezze di Bellinzona.
