Die Z\u00fcge aus Mailand enden hier, die F\u00e4hren beginnen hier, und das Wasser offenbart sich auf einen Schlag, sobald man den Bahnhof verl\u00e4sst \u2013 eine Wand aus gr\u00fcnen Bergen, die senkrecht in Blau abf\u00e4llt, mit einer ummauerten Stadt, die sich an deren Fu\u00df stapelt. Como ist das praktische Herz der ganzen Region, der Punkt, zu dem alles andere zur\u00fcckf\u00fchrt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it would be a mistake to treat it only as a doorway. Como, Lake Como&#8217;s southern gateway, is a working city rather than a resort, and it has been for a very long time. It has made silk for centuries and still does. It gave the world Alessandro Volta, and, long before him, the two Plinys of ancient Rome. Walk ten minutes from the platforms and you are inside medieval walls, under a Gothic cathedral, beside a promenade that runs along the water. Give it half a day and it rewards you; make it your base and you have the best-connected address on the lake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eine kurze Geschichte<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Como entstand als r\u00f6misches Comum, der Geburtsort von Plinius dem \u00c4lteren und seinem Neffen Plinius dem J\u00fcngeren. Sein mittelalterlicher Charakter wurde im Konflikt geschmiedet: nachdem Mailand die Stadt im Jahr 1127 niedergerissen hatte, genehmigte Kaiser Friedrich Barbarossa den Wiederaufbau ihrer Verteidigungsanlagen, und bis 1192 stand das gro\u00dfartige Tor Porta Torre der Stra\u00dfe nach Mailand als bewusste Erkl\u00e4rung der Unabh\u00e4ngigkeit gegen\u00fcber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the Renaissance onward, Como&#8217;s fortune was silk \u2014 a trade that still runs through the city&#8217;s workshops and design houses. In 1745 it produced Alessandro Volta, the physicist who built the first electric battery and lent his name to the volt. That is the short version. For the deeper story of the city&#8217;s faith, culture and traditions, see our guide to the <a href=\"\/de\/lago-di-como-kulturgeschichte-traditionen-schonheit-von-como\/\">Kulturgeschichte von Como<\/a>. Was hier folgt, ist das Praktische: wohin man gehen und was man sehen kann.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wo Como am See liegt<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Como occupies the extreme south-western tip of the lake, where the Como arm narrows to a point against the foot of the Alps. It is the closest lakeside town to Milan \u2014 a little under an hour by train \u2014 which is exactly why it is the standard arrival point, and the busiest. Two stations serve it: Como San Giovanni, on the main line from Milan and Switzerland, and Como Lago, right at the water&#8217;s edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the city&#8217;s piers, the ferries fan out north along both shores. The first stop up the western shore is Tavernola, a small frazione just past the edge of town; from there the boats carry on toward Cernobbio and, eventually, the fork of the lake at Bellagio. Wherever you are heading, you are heading from here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"933\" src=\"https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/brunate-viewpoint-panorama-como.jpg\" alt=\"Panorama \u00fcber Como und das s\u00fcdliche Becken des Comer Sees vom Aussichtspunkt Brunate\" class=\"wp-image-6022\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/brunate-viewpoint-panorama-como.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/brunate-viewpoint-panorama-como-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/brunate-viewpoint-panorama-como-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/brunate-viewpoint-panorama-como-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/brunate-viewpoint-panorama-como-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Das Panorama \u00fcber Como und das s\u00fcdliche Seebecken von Brunate.

Dom von Como (Duomo di Como)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Duomo is the city&#8217;s masterpiece, and often called the last Gothic cathedral built in Italy \u2014 begun in 1396 and not finished until 1770, when Filippo Juvarra crowned it with a Rococo dome. The result is a single building you can read like a timeline, Gothic at the base and Baroque at the top. Flanking the main portal are statues of Pliny the Elder and Pliny the Younger, a rare pair of pagan Romans standing guard on a Christian facade. Step inside for the 16th-century tapestries and the paintings by Bernardino Luini and Gaudenzio Ferrari.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Die Standseilbahn Brunate<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">F\u00fcr die Aussicht, die die Stadt definiert, fahren Sie mit der Standseilbahn hinauf ins Dorf Brunate auf dem Kamm dar\u00fcber. Sie wurde 1894 er\u00f6ffnet und verkehrt seitdem. Sie \u00fcberwindet etwas mehr als einen Kilometer bei Neigungen von bis zu 55 Prozent, sodass sich das gesamte Becken unter Ihnen \u00f6ffnet, w\u00e4hrend Sie aufsteigen. Von den Balkonen oben bietet sich ein atemberaubender Blick \u00fcber Como und den See, und f\u00fcr alle, die weiterwandern m\u00f6chten, f\u00fchren direkt Wanderwege in die H\u00fcgel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Das Seeufer: Tempio Voltiano und das elektrische Leben<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Como&#8217;s promenade is where the city turns to face its water, and it is stitched with tributes to Volta. The neoclassical Tempio Voltiano (1928) is a compact museum built to hold his instruments and papers. Out on the breakwater beyond it stands Life Electric, Daniel Libeskind&#8217;s stainless-steel sculpture unveiled in 2015 \u2014 two curving blades nearly fourteen metres tall, shaped to evoke the tension between the poles of a battery. Old science and new architecture, on the same short walk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Villa Olmo und ihre G\u00e4rten<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">West along the shore, Villa Olmo is Como&#8217;s grand neoclassical villa, built between 1797 and 1812 to a design by the architect Simone Cantoni. The house itself opens only for exhibitions, but the lakeside gardens are free and open through the day \u2014 an easy, leafy walk from the centre that gives you the villa, the water and a quieter stretch of shoreline all at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Das historische Zentrum: Piazza Cavour und Porta Torre<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Die Altstadt ist kompakt und l\u00e4dt zum Spazierengehen ein. Die Piazza Cavour \u00f6ffnet sich direkt zum See, ein breiter Platz mit Caf\u00e9s, die den F\u00e4hranlegern gegen\u00fcberliegen. Dahinter ist das enge Stra\u00dfennetz r\u00f6mischen Ursprungs fast unversehrt erhalten und wird am s\u00fcdlichen Rand von der Porta Torre begrenzt \u2013 dem vierzig Meter hohen mittelalterlichen Tor von 1192, einem der am besten erhaltenen Beispiele romanischer Milit\u00e4rarchitektur in Italien. Folgen Sie der alten Stadtmauer und Sie haben die mittelalterliche Stadt in weniger als einer Stunde umrundet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Planen Sie Ihren Besuch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Es geht voran.<\/strong> Da Como San Giovanni weniger als eine Stunde von Milano Centrale entfernt ist, finden Sie die vollst\u00e4ndige \u00dcbersicht \u00fcber Flugh\u00e4fen, Bahnh\u00f6fe und Transfers in unserem Leitfaden f\u00fcr <a href=\"\/de\/mailand-zum-comer-see-vom-flughafen-zum-comer-see\/\">Anreise vom Gardasee nach Venedig<\/a>.

Der Sommer ist auch machbar, wenn man fr\u00fch startet und die Standseilbahn nutzt, bevor sich lange Schlangen bilden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In der N\u00e4he.<\/strong> Das erste wahre Dorf im Norden ist <a href=\"\/de\/cernobbio-comer-see-reisefuhrer\/\">Cernobbio<\/a>, zehn Minuten Bootsfahrt entfernt und einen halben Tag wert f\u00fcr seine Villen. Weiter oben, wo der See um seine zentrale Landzunge teilt, liegt <a href=\"\/de\/bellagio-comer-see-reisefuhrer\/\">Bellagio<\/a>, die klassische n\u00e4chste Station auf jeder Como-Reiseroute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Como is not the prettiest village on the lake, and it does not try to be. It is the one that makes the rest of the lake possible \u2014 a real city with a Gothic cathedral, a mountain at its back and a battery&#8217;s worth of history along its shore. Arrive here, look up, and the lake takes care of the rest.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Como ist das pr\u00e4chtige Tor zum Comer See \u2013 mit einem gotischen Dom, der Standseilbahn nach Brunate, der Villa Olmo und einer reichen Seidenkultur.
