The Fabbrica / Dangio, Blenio

Home of Chocolate

In Valle di Blenio, described by historian Dominik Flammer as "the birthplace of Swiss chocolate", the historic Fabbrica brings together architecture, heritage and the spirit of Cima Norma. Within these walls, chocolate making once again gives life to the Maison’s enduring legacy.

The PLACE

The architecture of Cima Norma.

A distinctive façade, tall windows and generous rooms reflect the ambition of the Fabbrica. Set against the mountains of Valle di Blenio, the building gives Cima Norma its unmistakable presence and a lasting sense of place.
