HISTORY
Probably inserted in the Roman period in the district that had Dossena as its center, it developed along the ancient via "Mercatorum" which connected the Val Brembana and the Valle Seriana.
Like other surrounding territories, during the Middle Ages it was troubled by the struggles between the Guelphs and the Ghibellines, undergoing looting and destruction, which continued even during the war between the Duchy of Milan and the Venetian Republic, under whose rule it acquired great importance, rising to capital of the upper Val Brembana square.

THE EMBLEM
On 9 April 1961 the ancient coat of arms of Serina was approved by the city council, found on the title page of the acts of the "Statutum Vallis Brembanae Superioris" of 1468.
The mayor of the time had prepared another coat of arms, approved shortly before, in which in addition to the siren there was a palette, on a red background, as a tribute to the famous Venetian Renaissance painter Palma the Elder, pseudonym of Jacomo Nigretti de Lavalle, who he was born in Serina.
