Welcome to Cypress Island!
Its history hail from the Neolithic (10-15000 B.C.). On the eastern tip there were lake-dwellings. The historical events were tied to those of the Lake Pusiano and its illustrious owners and prestigious events.
The Island
Islands always have a great charm. The water all around gives a feeling of protection to the people on the island and an adventure sense to those willing to reach it.
Cypress Island is small.
There is a little house and it is situated in a lake that we cannot define as a big one. Great, however, are both the history and the charm of this site; great were the characters that have owned it, the artists and writers who have admired it.
