Accessibility

THE VILLAGE


- The "via Cornello" parking lot has a parking space for people with mobility disabilities. We recommend using this parking lot if you have mobility issues or difficulty walking short paths with inclines.

- From the "via Cornello" parking lot, the path to reach the village and the museum is accessible and mostly flat.

- At the village entrance and outside the church, there are tactile supports. At the entrance, you'll find a map of Cornello village; outside the church, you'll find the building's floor plan.

- Along the village's porticoed street and in the area facing the museum entrance, you'll find paving that facilitates movement on foot, with wheelchairs, walking sticks, and strollers.

- Outside the porticoed street, there's a platform lift to move from the porticoed street to the level where the museum entrance is located.

- To reach the level where the Church of Saints Cornelius and Cyprian is located, there are cobblestone stairs. This type of paving can be slippery if damp or wet.

General Logistic Information

- Cornello dei Tasso is a medieval village only reachable on foot.

- The village is permanently inhabited all year round, so please keep this in mind when you visit.

- The available parking spaces near the village are limited (you can find directions to parking areas here). Because of this, during peak seasons, we recommend choosing a weekday to plan your visit to Cornello. The busiest times in the village are the summer months, weekends, and public holidays. Alternatively, you can walk a section of the ancient "Via Mercatorum" which leads from the town of San Giovanni Bianco to Cornello. In this case, you can leave your car in San Giovanni Bianco at Piazzale degli Alpini, then continue on foot following the signs for the Val Brembana Cycle Path, heading north, then "Via Mercatorum - Oneta di San Giovanni Bianco" and "Cornello dei Tasso." You can find more information about the route at this link: http://mercatorumpriula.eu/percorsi/.

- If you're bringing a dog, remember to always have a leash, muzzle, and a waste bag kit with you. The village is small, and it's important to be considerate of residents, other visitors, and the cleanliness of the village.

- In the village, there are only bins for unsorted waste. If you produce recyclable waste, please don't throw it in the unsorted bin; take it with you until you find an appropriate recycling bin.

- If you're a smoker, please don't throw cigarette butts on the ground. The village and its inhabitants deserve respect, so extinguish it and dispose of it in a bin.
