The Sanctuary of the Madonna di Tirano (16th century) is the most important historical monument in Valtellina. Together with the Milan Cathedral and the Certosa di Pavia, it is also considered one of the most beautiful churches in Lombardy. It is located in Tirano, a town located on the border with Switzerland and the starting point of the Bernina Red Train. Another point of interest in Tirano is Palazzo Salis with its restored cellars dating back to the sixteenth century.
