From June to September there will be exclusive openings of some ChurchesSaints Eusebio and Vittore in Peglio, St. Giacomo Vecchia in Livo, St. Giovanni Battista in Brenzio and St. Pietro in Costa. 

As 2023, some volunteers have offered their willingness for the opening of some churches, in order to show some architecturals and pictorials masterpieces in the North Lake Como. These valuable monuments are part of the history and prove local people faith and their bond with this area, in particular the devotion of emigrants, especially in Sicily, in the 1500s and 1600s. Some churches are the result of the work of remarkable artists of the 17th century, like Isidoro Bianchi da Campione and the Fiammenghino; others works of art have been realized by famous Lombard painters of the 16th century, like Fermo Stella, Antonio De Magistris, Giovanni Andrea De Magistris and more.
