Ponte Caffaro, a charming village in the province of Brescia, Lombardy, Italy, is closely tied to key moments in Italian history. It was here, in 1866, that the national army led by Giuseppe Garibaldi fought against the Austrian forces during the Third War of Independence, securing a memorable victory. For many years, from 1861 to 1918, the Caffaro River itself marked the border between the Kingdom of Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
From a geographical point of view, the setting adds to the undeniable charm of Ponte Caffaro. Nestled on the Pian d&#8217;Oneda plain, where the Chiese and Caffaro rivers flow into Lake Idro, this small town is surrounded by the diverse and striking landscape of its valleys. Within its borders lie hidden gems of the past, such as the Eremo di san Giacomo, the hermitage dedicated to St. James, founded by Benedictine monks around the 10th century along the lake&#8217;s right bank. The building features a gabled façade and a three-arched pronaos added in the 16th century. Inside, the simple single nave retains the apse and steps of the original structure. Another important religious site is the parish church of St. Joseph, built in 1877 and consecrated in 1908. Its interior features a richly decorated vaulted ceiling and side chapels lining the hall.
More recently, the town administration of Ponte Caffaro has invested in upgrading public spaces and roadways, embracing innovation and modernisation, while carefully preserving the town&#8217;s historical character and natural beauty.
One of the key upgrades in Ponte Caffaro&#8217;s redevelopment was the lighting system, for which Disano – a leader in street lighting – was called in. The lighting system featured Sella and Garda luminaires, equipped with advanced lighting components to enhance visibility and improve safety.
Sella lighting fixture were installed along the main roads. Thanks to state-of-the-art LED technology, they provide excellent visibility, especially benefiting drivers and motorcyclists at night. In pedestrian areas and green spaces, lighting is provided by the Garda LED street lamp. With its classic design and cutting-edge technology, it delivers a colour temperature that&#8217;s gentle on the eyes and kind to local wildlife. Moreover, their wattages are optimised for energy efficiency, resulting in significant energy savings.
With this upgrade, the roads and green areas of Ponte Caffaro now enjoy ideal lighting, designed and provided by Disano to highlight the beauty of the area while prioritising the highest level of safety, sustainability, and efficiency.
