There’s Paderno, with its majestic iron bridge from the late 1800s and the naviglio built by the Austrians in the 1700s based on Leonardo’s designs; there’s Porto with the Sanctuary of the Madonna della Rocchetta; Cornate with the historic Bertini and Esterle hydroelectric power plants; and finally Trezzo sull’ Adda, with the Visconti castle and the Taccani power plant.
