Cantù is a city in the province of Como with over 40,000 inhabitants, famous throughout Italy for its traditions related to craftsmanship, such as the artistic production of furniture, the "Cantù lace" from a textile point of view, which have allowed it to great economic development over the centuries and the exciting Carnival of Cantù.

Thanks to industrial growth, Cantù has managed to enhance not only the large amount of monuments and places of interest it hosts, such as the Galliano Monumental Complex built at the beginning of the 11th century which corresponds to one of the first examples of architecture in Romanesque style.
