The privileged location in the midst of a diverse landscape, the southern climate, long-standing tradition in tourism, and a pronounced sense of hospitality among the inhabitants create ideal conditions for holidays and relaxation, and justify Ascona's reputation as a fairy-tale holiday resort. Noteworthy is the rich cultural and artistic heritage in this old town with numerous witnesses from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Also diverse are the traces of artists who lived in Ascona from the 17th century onwards, including the unique Baroque façade of the Casa Serodine. However, it was the turn of the century that brought Ascona the most fascinating epoch of its cultural history: a group of people from the north seeking a natural way of life settled on the hill above Ascona and named it "Monte Verità", the Mountain of Truth.
