camunian dialect ) is a town inLombardy in Northern Italy, in the geographical area administrated by theprovince of Brescia . It is situated at the northern tip ofLake Iseo .The town has several buildings of historical interest such as the medieval bell-tower and various churches, including a small church, the "chiesa della neve" on the outskirts of the town that has freizes painted by
Romanino on its walls. Apart from a main road that runs too close to the sea front, the town is very picturesque. Local people and tourists take their constitutional walk along the 'Lungolago Tempini', a small pedestrianised road that runs along the side of the lake. The people of Pisogne have a very strong accent and speak their own dialect. Speaking Italian is not enough to understand them, unless they wish to be understood. The dialect is spoken throughout theVal Camonica region.It is bounded by the communes of
Marone ,Pezzaze ,Pian Camuno ,Costa Volpino .
