The History and Importance of Lake Como Lake Como has a rich history that dates back to the ancient Romans. In the Middle Ages, the region developed as a centre of culture and trade, and its many castles and fortifications testify to its strategic importance. Over the centuries, Lake Como has attracted artists, writers and aristocrats who were fascinated by its beauty and used it as a source of inspiration. In modern times, it has become a popular holiday destination for the European elite, and the many villas and palaces that have been built on the shores of the lake testify to its prestige.
