Laveno-Mombello is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Varese in the Italian region Lombardy, located about 75 kilometres (47 mi) northwest of Milan and about 25 kilometres (16 mi) northwest of Varese. As of 31 December 2004, it had a population of 8,991 and an area of 25.9 square kilometres (10.0 sq mi). It sits at the foot of Sasso del Ferro.

The name of Laveno comes from two denominations: the first is from the Latin word "labes", which means "landslide"; the second denomination is from the Roman general Titus Labienus, that gives his name to the port (Portus Labienus) and subsequently to the surrounding area. The radix of the name is actually just in the main road of the town, via Labiena. Titus Labienus is considered responsible for naming Mombello too, after a battle against the Gauls ("mons belli" means "war hill").
