The Basilica of St. Giacomo in Bellagio is a Romanesque church with a simple stone facade and an impressive bell tower. Built in the 12th century, it has a restrained Baroque style with a mix of Umbrian and Lombard artwork, Romanesque sculptures, and beautiful paintings. The marble pulpit, supported by four columns representing the evangelists, adds to its charm. Located on a hillside in Piazza della Chiesa, it's a distinctive landmark in Bellagio that shouldn't be missed during your visit to Lake Como.
