Ardenno is the first town in the lower Valtellina that you encounter proceeding in the direction of Colico (i.e. from east to west), and is located near the mouth of Val Masino, on the Rhaetian side, immediately east of the point in which the Valtellina valley bottom describes a double S-shaped curve, bypassing the characteristic mountainous promontory of Culmine di Dazio, or Colmen. Its name is most likely connected with the root of the Latin verb "ardere", and therefore with fire, but the meaning of this connection is unclear. The diplomat and man of arms Giovanni Guler von Weineck, governor for the Gray League of Valtellina in 1587-88, in his work “Raetia” (Zurich, 1616), writes in this regard: “Some believe that the name of this borgo derives in ancient times from the Latin and Italian word ardere, because during the summer the town is tormented by terrible heat; in fact it is all exposed to the south, nor does any wind blow there, due to the mountain of Pilasco which rises to the west. So the climate is unbearable, and therefore the nobility and wealthy people, as long as the heat lasts, that is, until autumn, move to other cool and ventilated places". The notes on the summer climate are, in truth, rather exaggerated, and the hypothesis on the reason for the name of the town is not the only one. The name could, in fact, also refer to the torture of the patron saint, S. Lorenzo, who was martyred on a grill, or to the presence, in the upper hamlets, of numerous "piuàtt", particular piles from whose slow internal combustion coal was obtained wood, or finally, from an episode that dates back to the times of the barbarian invasions, when a team of knights who traveled through the valley attempted to set fire to the houses of the town, without succeeding, so much so that one of them was heard shouting "Burn- no, I burn”.--5fd8ecea036b90f0fa59d613122dad9f!
