The Walser <\/strong>are a population of German origins who arrived in the Anzasca Valley<\/strong> in the XII century and settled. The language, costumes and traditions have been passed from one generation to the next for centuries, and they can still be found in Macugnaga<\/strong> today.<\/p>\n

The architecture of the houses, the traditional costumes worn by women during celebrations and festivities, the Titsch language spoken by the elderly, are all elements of the Walser culture<\/strong> that you can experience in Macugnaga<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Walser House Museum<\/strong>, situated in the Borca borough, is worth a visit. Here you can explore an authentic Walser house, with its ancient furniture and a unique atmosphere.<\/p>\n

And don\u2019t miss a visit to the Mountain and Contraband Museum<\/strong> and to the Guia Ancient Gold Mine<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
