In Varallo, on the bridge over the Mastallone stream, there is a monument to soldier Giacomo Antonini. The statue was made by sculptor Pietro della Vedova.

Historical interpretation: Giacomo Antonini started his military career in 1811. As an officer in the army of Napoleon I, he was first in Dalmatia and then in Russia. Here he was captured, fled to Siberia and upon returning home was decorated with the Legion of Honor and promoted to lieutenant colonel. Later in his military career he led an expedition to Savoy and during the battle of Monte Berico he lost his right arm (the amputated limb, later embalmed, is preserved in the Varallo Art Gallery). He was deputy of the Kingdom of Sardinia for four terms, from 1848 to 1853.
