    In Gravedona you have to look for the Middle Ages on the lakeshore, where there is a church of rare beauty: S. Maria del Tiglio, a building for which the Maestri Comacini became famous and of which the Gravedoners are so proud today. This church in typical Romanesque style was built in the second half of the 12th century and was built over a baptismal church (5th century), which was dedicated to John the Baptist.

        "The church, located in the southern part of Gravedona, directly on the lake, is one of the most important ecclesiastical buildings in northern Italy. It was built in its present form in the 12th century on the foundations of a 5th-century baptistery dedicated to St. John the Baptist.
        The church, both inside and out, has a clear, unfussy structure made of light and dark stones, punctuated by numerous frescoes from the 14th and 15th centuries. The depictions of St. John the Baptist are particularly impressive."
