history

General story

Based on some archaeological finds and grave inscriptions found in the Lugano area, it can be assumed that the area around Lugano was inhabited by Leponti people. 804, 844 (copy around 1300), 854 (copy around 1300) and 875 Lugano is first mentioned in a document; the name forms were first Luanasco, then Luano . The meaning of the name is uncertain, possibly it goes back to the Latin lūcus "grove, forest".

In the Middle Ages, Lugano was affected by conflicts between Como and Milan for centuries, as these were often fought on battlefields in what is now the canton of Ticino. In the second half of the fourteenth century the city came under the rule of the Milanese Visconti . It was later occupied by French mercenaries, who in turn were driven out by the Confederates in 1513 ; since then, Lugano has been under federal rule. With the entry of French revolutionary troops into the territory of the Confederation in 1798, Ticino's status as a subject ended, and Lugano became the capital of the canton of Lugano in the Helvetic Republic for a few years . In 1803, Lugano became part of the canton of Ticino, the capital of which changed between Bellinzona , Locarno and Lugano every six years until 1878 .

Development of the urban area

Bay of Lugano Paradiso of view

In 1972 the former municipalities of Brè-Aldesago and Castagnola were incorporated into the city of Lugano.

In 2004 eight other municipalities merged with the city of Lugano: Breganzona , Cureggia , Davesco-Soragno , Gandria , Pambio-Noranco , Pazzallo , Pregassona and Viganello. As a result, both the area and the population of Lugano increased considerably.

On September 30, 2007, the voters of Barbengo , Carabbia and Villa Luganese as well as Lugano approved the incorporation of these three municipalities. The voters of the municipality of Cadro, however, rejected the merger, which is why Villa Luganese became an exclave of the city of Lugano. The incorporation was completed on April 20, 2008.

As of April 14, 2013, the municipalities of Bogno , Cadro , Carona , Certara , Cimadera , Sonvico and Val Colla were merged with Lugano, giving the city around 3400 additional inhabitants.

Due to the cramped conditions in the urban area due to the lake and mountains, the economic development takes place today mainly outside the municipal boundaries in the Vedeggio valley.

languages

The official language is Italian . The Ticinese dialect ( Ticinées ), a variety of Lombard , belonging to the area type Northern Italian or Padan , is on the decline; Urbanization , internal migration and tourism are seen as causes.

In 2014, 87.6% stated Italian, 9.7% German, 6.1% English and 5.8% French as their main language (more than one main language can be mentioned).

In the schools in Ticino, French is taught as the first foreign language and German as the second.

City center

San Lorenzo Cathedral
Santa Maria degli Angeli church

The medieval and early modern old town of Lugano was largely demolished or gutted on the basis of the structure plan from 1902 between 1910 and 1942 and replaced by a new city center. Therefore, only a few churches and a few secular buildings still exist from the former building structure. Besides these, the promenade Via Nassa and the Piazza della Riforma are particularly worth a visit.

Churches

  • The Cathedral of San Lorenzo is an early medieval foundation. It was first mentioned as a parish church in 818 and as a collegiate church in 1078; It has been a cathedral since the diocese of Lugano was founded in 1888. The current building, which still incorporates Romanesque walls, essentially dates from the Gothic period, but was later rebuilt several times (most recently 1905–1910). The stage facade, a masterpiece of the Lombard Renaissance (very likely by Giovanni Antonio Amadeo ), was started in 1517 and completed towards the end of the 16th century.
  • The parish church of Santa Maria degli Angioli originally belonged to a Franciscan monastery and was built between 1499 and 1515. Inside is the most famous fresco cycle of the Renaissance in Switzerland: the depictions "Crucifixion of Christ", "The Last Supper" and "The Mother of God with Child" were painted by Bernardino Luini , a student of da Vinci .
  • The Church of San Rocco was built between 1528 and 1723. Inside, it has rich pseudo-architecture and frescoes from the Baroque era .
  • The current construction of the church of Sant'Antonio Abate dates from the 17th century and the early 20th century. The interior is rich in baroque architecture.
  • The monastery of San Giuseppe of the Capuchin Clarissins was founded in 1747 by Bishop of Como Agostino Maria Neuroni . Inside there are halls with painted wooden ceilings and mirror vaults with illusionist paintings and frescoes painted around 1774 by the brothers Giovanni Antonio and Giuseppe Antonio Torricelli.
  • The Capuchin monastery Santissima Trinità was founded in 1646, the late baroque church was consecrated in 1654. In the south of the building area is the Salita dei Frati public library planned by Mario Botta in 1976–1979 and completely buried in the ground with a skylight above the reading room.
  • Other churches in the city center are San Carlo (1640–1661), San Giuseppe (1758–1759) and Santa Maria Immacolata (consecrated in 1852, facade from 1917).

Palazzi and other buildings

Palazzo Riva (via Magatti)

Only a few civil buildings remain from the former old town. The three of them bear the name of the noble family of the Riva.

  • La Piccionaia on Corso Pestalozzi is a rare example of a civil Renaissance building. It was built at the end of the 15th century.
  • The Palazzo Riva on Via Soave received its present-day appearance around 1730.
  • The Palazzo Riva on Via Magatti is one of the most important examples of late Baroque civil architecture in Ticino.
  • The Palazzo Riva on Via Pretorio is a late Baroque building that was built between 1742 and 1752.
  • The town hall on the Piazza della Riforma is a monumental classicist rectangular building that was built in 1843–1844 as a government building.
  • The Villa Ciani in today's Parco Civico is one of the most beautiful residences of the 19th century in Ticino and shows itself in simple classicist forms. In its place originally stood a castle of the Duke of Milan, which was razed by the Confederates in 1517.

Buildings that were erected as part of urban renewal include the Palazzo Primavesi (1911–1913, decorative eclectic architectural elements ), the Palazzi Gargantini (1912–1930, Neo-Baroque to Art Deco ), the Palazzina Alhambra (1926, neo-Renaissance ), the Palazzo degli Studi (1903–1904, historicism ) and the cantonal library (1937–1941, a milestone in modern architecture in Ticino) should be mentioned. One of the most important examples of cinema architecture from the 1950s is the Corso , built according to plans by Rino Tami .

North of the city center, in the Molino Nuovo district , is the monumental city cemetery, laid out between 1897 and 1899, with numerous grave monuments of outstanding artistic quality.

traffic

The Lugano railway station lies on the railway line Zurich / Basel-Milan ( Gotthard Bahn ). EuroCity trains, Intercity , RegioExpress and the S-Bahn stop here . After a two-year construction period, the renovated station was inaugurated on December 11, 2016.

The city lies on the A2 motorway (Basel-Gotthard-Lugano-Chiasso) with two exits (No. 49 Lugano North and No. 50 Lugano South).

Four meter-gauge trams were operated in and around Lugano until the second half of the 20th century, namely the Lugano tram , the Lugano-Cadro-Dino-Bahn (LCD), the Lugano-Tesserete-Bahn (LT) and the Lugano-Ponte -Tresa-Bahn (FLP). The first three were later converted to bus operation, while the FLP was gradually expanded into a high-performance suburban railway. For the future, an underground introduction to the city center (abandoning the current end point at the SBB train station) is up for debate.

Within the city, the old, mostly single-lane tram routes were replaced by the Lugano trolleybus between 1954 and 1959 . In the 1990s, the maintenance of the trolleybuses and their infrastructure were increasingly reduced. After the Federal Office of Transport only granted temporary operating permits for parts of the vehicle fleet and linked various other conditions to the continued operation of the network, trolleybus operation was switched to diesel buses on June 30, 2001 and the electrical systems dismantled. In connection with the FLP conversion plans, the reintroduction of tram operation is also being discussed.

The Lugano – Bahnhof SBB funicular , which opened in 1886 and has been known as Sassellina since 2016 , is important for inner-city traffic and is therefore heavily frequented . It connects Piazza Cioccaro in the old town with the SBB train station . After a two-year renovation, the funicular reopened on December 11, 2016. The train overcomes a difference in altitude of 50 meters and is the most popular funicular in Switzerland.

To the west of the city is the Lugano-Agno airport , from which scheduled flights to Geneva and Zurich are operated. It is connected to the city center by train by the Lugano-Ponte-Tresa-Bahn (line S60 of the Ticino S-Bahn ), by car you can reach it in the direction of Ponte Tresa and over the hill of Sorengo (junction to Collina d ' Oro).

The Società Navigazione del Lago di Lugano (Shipping Company of Lake Lugano ) connects several landing stages located within the city and the places on Lake Lugano.
