    The village of Salmezza is located at about 1000 meters above sea level, between the Podona and Filaressa mountains and has 10 inhabitants.

    The name seems to derive from "Salmetia" since it seems that there were salt deposits in the area, which supplied the Seriana and Brembana Valleys through the "Via Mercatorum" which not coincidentally passed from there.
