The pedestrian bridge is beautifully integrated into the old city fortifications

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 Porta Poschiavina (named after the Poschiavino River) is a square tower and is now integrated into the surrounding buildings. The Porta Poschiavina (Porta Poschiavina sul Bernina, approximately 440 m above sea level) served as a connection to Graubünden via the old bridge (over the Adda River) through two consecutive round arches and a gatehouse with groin vaults. The groove of the portcullis can still be seen on the side of the tower facing the city. The visible frescoes date from the 15th century, including two figures of the Wild Man.

The Church of the Sacred Heart (Italian: Chiesa del Sacro Cuore, also Oratorio Sacro Cuore) is a Roman Catholic church in Tirano. The church belongs to the ecclesiastical region of Lombardy, the Diocese of Como, and is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The church is located near Piazza Marinoni in the center of Tirano, with its choir facing the Adda River. According to the inscription inside the church, the church, largely painted in light brown, was founded around 1910 by Giacomo Merizzi (August 15, 1834 – March 22, 1916), Titular Archbishop of Mocissus and Ancyra and Bishop of Vigevano. The interior of the church is largely white, and the walls are decorated with framed paintings of the Stations of the Cross. To the left and right of the recessed choir arch are two statues of saints set into the wall (the Virgin Mary on the left). The choir is separated from the nave by two stone steps. The stone high altar is dominated by a large cross, in front of which stands a statue of Jesus. The dark brown pews provide seating for approximately 250 people. The people's altar is made of wood and features a sculptural and lifelike carved depiction of the Last Supper on its front.

A must-see. Everything to discover.

That's right, the church belongs to the monastery.

I really enjoyed it here too.

I felt very comfortable in this small town with about 9,000 inhabitants.
