The project
Enhancement and care of the Bell Tower of Lecco.
The guided visits to the San Nicolò Bell Tower are part of an overall project aimed at the enhancement and care of this iconic monument of the city of Lecco.
Proposed in 2015 by the youth group of the nearby San Luigi Oratory, the idea was immediately adopted by the San Nicolò Parish, owner of the bell tower, which entrusted the "San Nicolò Bell Tower Volunteers" with the task of developing the project for non-profit cultural purposes.
Per questa ragione, la maggior parte del ricavato della vendita dei biglietti viene destinato ogni anno ai progetti di solidarietà e di impegno già noti alla Parrocchia.
In addition to the guided tours, the Volunteers take care of the ordinary maintenance and cleaning of the Bell Tower, and in particular develop ideas that will engage and captivate visitors, as well as make our beloved "Matitone" * increasingly open and available to the city.
Not only will visitors view the spectacular landscape, but will also be accompanied on a historical-cultural itinerary, enriched by the studies and insights of the volunteers.
* Matitone is an affectionate nickname for the San Nicolò Bell Tower of Lecco. Come visit and learn more!
