The Gerenzone Valley
“The location of the oldest metallurgical and mechanical workshops in Lecco was the Gerenzone Valley, a narrow and short valley that, from the opening of the Valsassina, passes through the districts of Laorca, Malavedo, Rancio, San Giovanni, Castello, and continues into the center of Lecco until it reaches the lake. The use of the watercourse as a driving force for productive activities and the proximity to Valsassina, which provided minerals and timber, were key factors for the metallurgical industry, which, from the Middle Ages until the second half of the 19th century, continued to favor the Valley as the ideal location for medium-small sized factories.”
