WELCOME TO OMEGNA !
You have come to ancient Vaemenia, home of the “mocha express,” the “made in Italy” kitchen-hardware industry, and the tales of Gianni Rodari.
According to legend, the origin of the name Omegna dates back to the ancient Romans who, crossing Northern Italy on the way to conquer Gaul, found strong resistance from our town and shouted together with their captain “Vae, Moenia !” (Alas, walls!).
Your exploration of the city begins from one of the most beautiful spots, the gulf’s harbor, where the waters of the lake turn north through the Nigoglia Canal. This is the only example of an Italian alpine lake emptying north towards the mountains instead of south towards the plains. Hence the popular saying of the people of Omegna, which also says a lot about their temper: “La Nigùia la va ’n sü e la lég’ la fuma nü!” (The Nigolia goes upwards and we make the law!).
