La Velarca: entry ticket

Visit La Velarca, a work of architecture and design designed by the BBPR studio between 1959 and 1961. This houseboat, commissioned by Emilio and Fiammetta Norsa, was built on the hull of a historic 1911 gondola, the Corriera Tremezzina, which sailed Lake Como for years.

The structure represents an example of integration between modern aesthetics and the local context. The admission ticket allows you to discover how this unique dwelling connects the past and present of the lake area.
