Ossuccio

It is an ancient town whose history merges with that of the Island Comacina.
The island, home to an important Parish Church during the first centuries of Christianity, was fortified by the Byzantines, then defeated by Autari (588) Lombards who were privileged to name the country.
In the following centuries, the fact that it has become the safest refuge of kings and dukes with their courtyards and treasures, earned her the nickname Chrysopolis, the city of gold.

During the decade-long war he sided with Milan, but concurred with its fleet to the city's defeat, which in 1169 took his revenge, occupying the island and violently forcing the inhabitants to disperse the facing coasts.
