Varese, historic center, elegant rental housing solutions

The city of Varese lies on the shores of the lake of the same name. It is called the "Garden City" thanks to its numerous and beautiful private and public gardens located within the municipality. The city of Varese is in a characteristic position, at the foot of the Sacro Monte of Varese, which is part of the Campo dei Fiori massif and hosts an astronomical observatory. Varese is spread over seven hills: Colle di San Pedrino (402 m), Colle di Giubiano (407 m), Colle Campigli (453 m), Colle di Sant'Albino (406 m), Colle di Biumo Superiore (439 m), Colle di Montalbano (411 m), and Colle dei Miogni (492 m). The municipal territory is therefore situated between 238 and 1,150 meters above sea level. The winters in Varese are little influenced by the mitigating effect of Lake Maggiore and the smaller lakes in the province. Late autumn and winter minimum temperatures often drop, albeit slightly, below zero. It is precisely these low nighttime temperatures that create a different climate compared to areas south of the city. As in other pre-Alpine Lombard cities, fog is an infrequent phenomenon. Since 1960, it has been home to the only Italian location of the European School, created for the children of European officials from the Joint Research Centre. The Milan Malpensa and Lugano Agno airports are about 30 minutes away. The shores of Lake Maggiore can be reached in 20 minutes by car.
