Ono San Pietro, mid Val Camonica below the Concarena
At the foot of the Concarena, the mountain that closes off this stretch of the middle Val Camonica to the west, Ono San Pietro is a compact village on the slope, with the floor of the Oglio valley just below. Capo di Ponte, with its parks of prehistoric rock carvings, is close by, and the main road and the Brescia to Edolo railway via Iseo run along the valley.
Choosing Ono means living in an Alpine valley without being cut off. Breno and the other towns in the valley have schools and offices, while Brescia and Lake Iseo are reached by heading down the valley. The town hall is at around 500 metres, in climate zone E, with cold winters that are milder than in the upper valley.
There are fewer older residents than in the rest of the province: over-65s are 20.5% against 22.8% in the province of Brescia, while the average age is 46.2 against 45.4. In 2023 there were 953 residents, down 4.9% on 2011. Households have 2.28 people on average and foreign residents make up 2.6%. Declared incomes are below the provincial average.
Ono San Pietro is in seismic zone 3 in the Civil Protection classification, like 152 other municipalities in the province, while 52 are in zone 2. The expected ground acceleration in the village is low, 0.069 g; in old stone houses the roof, floors and damp matter more.
The hillside has slopes and streams coming down from the mountain. The report measures the gradient at the house and checks the official landslide and flood maps. The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes its cadastral maps here, and the report reaches the land parcel.
