Capolago
Capolago lies at the foot of Monte Generoso and is the starting point of the Ferrovia Monte-Generoso rack railroad. The parish church of Santa Maria Maddalena, the rectory with a beautiful fresco and the former Tipografia Elvetica are considered cultural assets. Capolago is a small village with less than 1000 inhabitants and is situated at 273 meters above sea level. The village is located at the southern end of an arm of Lake Lugano and is not far from Mendrisio. Literally translated, the place name Capolago means "at the head of the lake".

“Great slides and with the nice weather, there was never any waiting in line.”
“The landscape, the railway's route, and the old town of Domodossola are all amazing. However, in train operations, there’s often some improvisation. While it has its charm, there’s definitely room for improvement.”
“Simply awesome! Great experience 😊”
“An immersive exhibition that touches the soul. Every detail has been thoughtfully crafted, staying true to Chaplin's humanism. You feel connected to his world from the moment the film starts at the cinema, before gradually exploring each theme of his vast body of work. A body of work that rises above human foolishness through laughter, poetry, beauty, dreams, and unconditional love. Universal.”
“It was very impressive and beautiful. Not enough parking spaces. Filled up immediately.”
