    Village of Montione

    Arch of Montione

    Arch or vault made of sandstone blocks in the small village of Montione, under which passes the ancient mule track that connected Verghereto with Tuscany, across the Alp.

    The valuable artefact, recently restored, dates back to the 17th century.

      Oratory of S. Pietro a Montione

      The small building is located in the hamlet of Montione, a few houses planted on the rough counter-ridge of Poggio Bancola, crossed by the ancient mule track that went from Verghereto to Poggio Bastione, on the ridge of the Tuscan-Romagna Apennines. The oratory - documented as early as 1296 when it was "under the invocation of St. Peter the Apostle" - was dedicated to the Madonna in 1608 and recently restored by Francesco di Matteo di Montione, as can be seen from the inscription carved on the façade: ANNO D.NI 1602 FRAN. MAT. I HAVE. OP. EREXIT.
