The terminus of the Bernina Line. You can also reach it without the Bernina Express by regular regional train. Or by bus from Samedan or Pontresina to La Prese and then change to the regional train for the rest of the journey.

The station, located at an altitude of 429 meters above sea level, was opened on June 29, 1902, along with the newly constructed line from Sondrio. The placement of the station building on the side was a preliminary construction step for the then-planned but never-realized extension towards Bormio, the so-called Ortler Railway. Since July 1, 1908, Tirano has also served as a transfer station to the Bernina Railway. At that time, the RhB built its own station building on the forecourt of the Italian station. Passenger traffic on the Italian line is now handled by Trenord. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahnhof_Tirano

Piazza Luigi Torelli is located in front of the train station in Tirano. The stones commemorate Luigi Torelli. Count Luigi Torelli (February 9, 1810 in Villa di Tirano; November 14, 1887 in Tirano) was an Italian officer, prefect, and politician. Torelli studied law at the University of Pavia. In 1848, he participated in a five-day popular uprising in Milan against the Austrians, who were temporarily expelled from the city. Torelli achieved a certain degree of fame because, as a leading member of the insurgents, he placed the Italian tricolor on the top of Milan Cathedral. After the uprising was crushed, he went to neighboring Piedmont and became a member of parliament there in 1849, as well as an officer in the local army. As such, he participated in the Wars of Italian Unification in 1849 and 1859 and received several high decorations. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luigi_Torelli

Tirano is a small Italian town at the entrance to the Veltins mountain range near the Swiss border and is known as the terminus of the Bernina Express, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The town is home to the Madonna di Tirano pilgrimage church, a stunning 16th-century basilica. Tirano boasts a picturesque old town with stately homes, a medieval city wall, and is a center for local culinary delights and wine tastings.

The road to Como and the Aprica Pass, approximately 435 m above sea level, leads through the Porta Milanese (Porta Milanese sulla media valle, approximately 435 m above sea level) and on to Milan (in Italian: Milano). The gateway has retained its original appearance very well to this day. The original structure is still visible today, with the rounded arch of the outer opening and the staircase leading to the upper floor. The gateway has a rounded arch on the outward-facing side. The gatehouse itself has a groined vault. On the inward-facing side, there is a flat arch. A narrow slot for a portcullis and a cast hole in the apex of the arch are still visible.
