According to a legend, the island of Atlantis sank into the sea while, on the contrary, paleontology and geology studies indicate that Monte San Giorgio, a splendid green pyramid straddling the Italian-Swiss border and more precisely between Mendrisiotto and Varesotto, emerged from the waters of that lagoon in the sea of the Tethys. A place that tells the story of a sea whose memories are handed down to us from the fossil finds recovered and now on display at the fossil museum of Monte San Giorgio in Meride. A treasure that has been included in the list of World Heritage Sites by UNESCO, the world organization that, among other things, attaches value to the most important and unique things that exist on our planet.
