Borbino is a small hamlet of Abbadia Lariana, which was of great importance in the past. The oldest of the three churches in the town dates back to the 13th century.
The symbolic place of this hamlet is the large washhouse located in front of the church of Our Lady of the Snow: place of aggregation for the women of the time who gathered here to do laundry, the washhouse of the hamlet of Borbino was used to wash clothes until the sixties.
In recent times, thanks to the work of local volunteers (the so-called “burbinatt”), the water of the washhouse has returned to flow just as in the past.
