Stampa is a former municipality in the Maloja district of the Swiss canton, Graubünden. It is now part of the municipality of Bregaglia.
Stampa is first mentioned after 1354 as Stamppa.
Stampa has an area, as of 2006[update], of 94.7 km2 (36.6 sq mi). Of this area, 14.2% is used for agricultural purposes, while 18.8% is forested. Of the rest of the land, 0.8% is settled (buildings or roads) and the remainder (66.1%) is non-productive (rivers, glaciers or mountains).
The municipality is located in the Bergell sub-district of the Maloja district and is the administrative and cultural center of the sub-district. The municipality is divided into two distinct territories, the smaller in the Val Bregaglia and the larger which extends from the two sides of the Maloja Pass and Engadin.
It consists of the valley settlements of Stampa, Borgonovo, Coltura, Montaccio, Caccior (at an elevation of 1,000 m (3,300 ft)), Cavril and Canova at the foot of the Maloja Pass (at 1,600 m (5,200 ft)) and the sections of Maloja with Isola, Orden, Pila and Capolago (at 1,810 m (5,940 ft)).
On 1 January 2010 the municipalities of Bondo, Castasegna, Soglio, Stampa, and Vicosoprano merged into a new municipality of Bregaglia.
Lägh da Cavloc is located in the Val Forno.
