View of the town

Gurro borders the municipalities of Miazzina and Valle Cannobina.

Gurro is said to be populated by the descendants of Scottish soldiers. According to local legend, Scottish soldiers fleeing the Battle of Pavia (24 February 1525) arrived in the area where severe blizzards forced many, if not all, to give up their travels and settle in the town. Gurro is proud of its Scottish links, many Scottish flags fly around the village. Many residents claim their surnames are Italian translations of Scottish surnames, and the town also has a Scottish museum. Many quirks of the village's dialect are said to be from Gaelic.[4]
