    Tips

    The little church of San Gallo stands out with its bell tower just outside the town of Bormio.
    The date of construction is uncertain, some scholars attribute it to the early Middle Ages.


    The church inside boasts surprising fifteenth-century frescoes and you can also admire the statue of San Gallo with his faithful bear.
    The saint, little known in Italy, lived in the sixth century and is always portrayed with a bear. This is because, according to legend, San Gallo, having just decided to live as a hermit, met the wounded animal and cared for it. From that moment on, the bear always stayed close to him, protecting him.

      Beautiful little church on the road between Bormio and Premadio, in some meadows between the mountains, picturesque from every direction you look at it.
