Como Nord Camerlata
Camerlata is a district in the municipality of Como and was an independent town until 1884. The area has an official weather station which is part of the Centro Meteo Lombardo network. Its name is probably linked to an expression in the Lombard language, cà merlada, meaning "house with battlements".
Camerlata is served by the Milano-Chiasso (RFI), Como-Lecco (RFI) and Saronno-Como (FN) railway lines. Until 1966, the station was also served by the Varese-Como (Traversata) railway. The Albate-Camerlata station closed down on 13 June 2021. In the first half of the 20th century, Camerlata was also the location of a terminus of the Como tramway network, as well as tracks of the Como-Cantù-Asnago and Como-Appiano-Gentile-Mozzate tramway.

Baradello Castle and Spina Verde park (1.6 km from the station): Baradello Castle, a landmark in Spina Verde Park, is a fortification erected by emperor Frederick Barbarossa on the remains of earlier buildings. The castle was built in a strategic location, and its elevated position above the town allowed control of the entire surrounding area. It was dismantled after 1526 by Spanish invaders. The tower is home to a museum which displays archaeological finds from digs carried out at the castle by architect Luigi Mario Belloni in the 1970s, and material recovered during a series of digs carried out between 2008-2010 under the direction of the Musei Civici di Como, authorised by the Italian Ministry.
