Lombardy: Stylish beauty in Northern Italy

Lombardy is the Italian region with the highest number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It is sprinkled with art cities, picturesque villages and incredible landscapes of unspoiled beauty. Lake Como, Lake Garda, Lake Iseo and Lake Maggiore offer breathtaking scenery, enhanced by the presence of mountains, which will be home to the Milan Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics and Paralympics.

The brand “Lombardia Style” identifies and celebrates the best of production, inspiration and creativity made in Lombardy from fashion to design, craftsmanship to quality dining. Barbara Mazzali, the Lombardy Region Councillor for Tourism, Territorial Marketing and Fashion, describes the aim of this campaign: “We want to bring together Lombardy’s many and varied excellences. It’s time to create a network that brings together the protagonists of this unique story, so that it can also be told abroad.”
