Some information about Palazzago

Palazzago is an Italian municipality in the province of Bergamo, Lombardy, which is about 16 kilometers (10 miles) northwest of the Orobic capital. The municipality is part of the Imagna Valley Mountain Community.

The town is characterized by the numerous settlements that dot its vast territory: in addition to the main town, there are the hamlets of Collepedrino, Burligo, Acqua, Pratomarone, Precornelli, Dusnale, Cà Quarengo, Al Borghetto, Verzella, Brocchione, Longoni, Montebello, Salvano, Secchia, Beita, San Sosimo and Gromlongo.

Very important is the prepositural church of St. John the Baptist, built beginning in the 15th century and characterized by its grandeur. Paintings include the altarpiece of the Assumption, executed by Giovan Battista Moroni, and other canvases by Abramo Spinelli and Giovanni Scaramuzza. Of particular note is the so-called “Devil’s Chapel,” on whose ceiling Satan is depicted. The church tower, nearly fifty meters high, dates back to the 14th century and was carved from a defensive tower. It houses a bell concert of 8 bells in the key of B-flat major cast by Giorgio Pruneri of Grosio in Valtellina in 1902. The two larger, more recent bells were reinstated in 1954 by the G. B. De Poli foundry in Udine following wartime requisition in 1943. Also in the church is a Serassi organ of rare value, built in 1851 and bearing number Opus 608, which is still functioning and in use today.

Also noteworthy is the parish church in Gromlongo (one of Palazzago’s hamlets), dedicated to Saints Roch and Sebastian. Dating from the 17th century, it features a splendid sandstone facade richly carved and adorned with statues by Antonio Maria Pirovano in 1731 and a pyramidal dome that characterizes the bell tower, which houses 5 bells in the key of G-flat major cast by Angelo Ottolina of Bergamo in 1947.

Also in the religious sphere, the Burligo parish church deserves mention, which, dedicated to St. Charles Borromeo, houses fine works, including altarpieces by Gian Paolo Cavagna and a 1797 Bossi organ in a prestigious wooden case of the fantoniana school, restored in 2004.

Finally, there is also Villa Belvedere, which, located in the town of the same name, has a large garden.
