Arona

The long and winding road

The building of the Simplon road was ordered by Napoleon Bonaparte on the 7th September 1800. The road starts at the Arch of Peace (Arco della Pace) in the City of Milan and ends at the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. The road passes along the Piedmont side of Lake Maggiore - right through Arona - over the Simplon Pass into Switzerland and France.
