'''Angolo Terme''' (''Angól'' in [[Camunian dialect]]) is a ''[[comune]]'' in [[Val Camonica]], [[province of Brescia]], in [[Lombardy]], [[Italy]]. It lies on the right bank of the river [[Dezzo]], in the lower [[Valle di Scalve]].

==History==
{{see also|Val Camonica}}

Angolo was a mining center known since the 4th century BC. After the 12th century AD its history was closely linked to that of the [[Federici]] family. In 1335 [[Luchino Visconti (namatay 1349)|Luchino Visconti]] granted them a privilege to extract iron in the area. In 1403 [[Caterina Visconti]] gave the family  the possessions of the Antonioli of Grevo in exchange for the support offered  her.

In 1408 Angolo went to [[Pandolfo III Malatesta]], who ceded it to Comicino Federici, who temporarily sided for the [[Guelphs and Ghibellines|Guelphs]], until 1419, when he returned to the   Ghibelline allegiance and the Visconti.

In 1509 Angolo (called ''Anghol'') appears in a map of the [[Valle Camonica]] designed by [[Leonardo da Vinci]].

In 1846 the town of Angolo, placed administratively in the province of Bergamo, demanded to be included in the [[province of Brescia]].

In 1923 several houses suffer damage from the failure of the [[Gleno Dam]] (Italy), with 46 deaths among the inhabitants.

==Main sights==
* Parish Church of [[Saint Lawrence|San Lorenzo]], of ancient origin, rebuilt in 1694 and enlarged in 1757. The side portals are in "Simona stone". The fifteen panels of the entrance door depict   episodes of Christ's Life.
* Church of [[Elizabeth (Biblical person)|Saint Elizabeth]] (or of the Visitation), situated along the road that leads into the Val di Scalve. It was built between the 15th and 16th century.
*Hermitage of [[Sylvester I|Saint Sylvester]]: built in the early 16th century.
* Former  Albrici - Federici palace, with a 16th-century portal in "[[Sarnico]] stone".

==Culture==
The scütüm are in [[camunian dialect]] nicknames, sometimes personal, elsewhere showing the characteristic features of a community.  The one which characterize the people of Angolo Terme is ''Treàangoi''.
