located about 40 km northeast of Milan and about 15 km south of Lecco in Lombardy/Italy there is a small village with 3 pyramid shaped hills. These hills in Montevecchia were discovered in 2003 by the Italian architect Vincenzo DeGregorio.

If it is true, what Vincenzo DeGregorio could see with his BALLOON CAM, these hills, the highest 150 m, would be gigantic pyramids. Even higher than the Giza pyramids in Egypt (once 146 m). The Czech magazine WM 2003 has published a report about their research in May 2003.

In early 2003, the pyramids of Montevecchia (“Old Mountain"), ca. 30 miles from the Italian city of Milan, were discovered through the use of satellite and aerial imagery. These pyramids are now completely covered by ground and vegetation and appear to be natural hills, but the possibility of something more was enough for the Czech WM magazine and their editor in chief Georg Wojnar to visit the area. They arrived on May 8, 2003, in an effort to locate and survey the site. The team soon learned that discovering their location from the ground proved more difficult than imagined, with the team becoming impressed with the driving abilities required to negotiate the roads that lead towards the hills. After two days of failed attempts, they finally succeeded in locating the pyramids and carrying out an initial survey.
The team’s conclusion appeared in the June 2003 issue of WM. They had come to the conclusion that the first pyramid was estimated to have a base of 100 metres, with a height of 50 metres. In total, three potential pyramids were surveyed, with one pyramid showing clear signs of stones worked into the structure, close to the surface. A platform with an oblong superstructure with a size of 18 by 9 metres was also discovered. All three structures had an inclination of 42/43 degrees. The sides of all pyramids were aligned and were offset from the cardinal points by approximately 7 to 12 degrees northeast. The team wondered whether this was an error in design or a sign of something more intriguing. From the initial aerial surveys, there was speculation that their layout compared to the pyramids of the Gizeh plateau – and thus to the Belt of Orion. The Czech team stated that their on-site research had showed that the pyramids actually aligned with the passing of Orion at the sunrise of the summer solstice. The Czech team felt that the site should be known as “the Italian Gizeh".
Gabriela Lukacs (together with fellow researcher Nenad Djurdjevic from Bergamo)made a research trip to Montevecchia in October 2007.

The 3 pyramidal hills are best seen from the little town of Montevecchia. The old town itself is located on a hill with the Carmelite monastery situated on the tallest hill top. And this was a big surprise to us: this area is a huge basin with 7 to 9 pyramidal hills surrounding it. The 3 hills detected and determined as pyramids by V.DeGregorio can easily be seen and are not the only ones in the area!
Our research brought up 13 surprises and a new approach to the "Montevecchia" hills:
7-9 pyramid shaped and terraced hills can be seen in the area of Montevecchia.
Not only are their pyramidal shapes clearly visible, but also the steps, edges and flattened tops.
2 hills are parallel and their sides are aligned with a slight offset of 7-12° to the cardinal directions. 1 hill slightly different in position and alignment.
The stepped ascent paths to the tops follow the edges on the SE+SW sides.
All 3 hills are connected with each other by a path N-S, respectively S-N.
P1+P2 have grass covered stepped terraces, P3 is completely hidden under wood and shrubs.
P1 has a flat top with now 11 cypress trees + 1 altar stone (in place of 1 cut tree).
P2 has an elliptical plateau 9x18m built from huge stone blocks, shaped and cut to fit in place. Both centres of the ellipse can still be seen on the plateau.
From all 3 hill tops the eastern sunrise can be observed behind the alpine mountains, making them an excellent observation platform. There is a fallen menhir on P2 platform.
All terraces are built from dry stone walls, height approx.50 cm. The dry stone walls are made of rectangular shaped stones with flat sides and right angles, no field stones.
The wine-terraces on the smaller slopes in the valley follow the topography, the steps on the pyramidal hills are completely straight with balanced level.
Hill inclination of 42-43° and possible height of manmade structure 50m, maybe even 150m.
Gorgeous view round Curone valley. On a clear day you can see Milan.
