Ticino's art of living
Whether right on our doorstep or in nearby Lugano, the pearl of southern Ticino between the lake and the mountains, there is always something new to experience.
The art of living in Ticino is evident not only in the landscape and architecture, but also in stories, encounters, and living culture. In Malcantone, people still tell the old story of Miglieglia and neighboring Breno, where donkeys and mules were once symbols of a long dispute and later became signs of reconciliation. It is a story that symbolizes the independence, humor, and cohesion of this region.
Art and culture are omnipresent in southern Ticino. The Museo del Malcantone offers an insight into regional history and traditions, while other museums in the area provide an insight into art, everyday culture, and crafts.
