At the beginning of the 90s, the few remaining inhabitants of the village sat down together and thought about how they could stop the decline of Valloria. They came up with the idea of inviting artists to paint house doors and in this way attract tourist attention. The result is a unique open-air gallery of different styles.

Certainly one of the most famous towns in the area due to the excellent idea, had some time ago, to have the doors of the town painted by famous painters. A tour to see all the works is worth it. An open-air art gallery!
