Gentilino is a village and former municipality in the canton of Ticino, Switzerland, close to Lake Lugano and the city of Lugano.
The local Church of Sant'Abbondio (in Italian: Chiesa di Sant'Abbondio a Gentilino - not to be confused with the Swiss municipality of Sant'Abbondio above Lake Maggiore, or the Basilica of Sant'Abbondio in Lombardy, Italy) is noteworthy for dating from the eleventh century.[1][2] The cemetery of Sant'Abbondio is the resting place of Hugo Ball, Bruno Walter, and Hermann Hesse.[2][3] It is a Swiss heritage site of national significance.[4]
In 2004, the municipality was merged with the other, neighboring municipalities Agra and Montagnola to form a new and larger municipality Collina d'Oro.[5]
