The ancient medieval village of Votigno di Canossa, two kilometers from the historic Rupe where the great Countess Matilde dominated the world and invited Popes and Emperors, is considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy.Located in the center of the Emilian territory, on the gentle hills of Reggio, Votigno is less than thirty minutes by car from Reggio Emilia, Parma, the Reggio Emilia motorway exits of Campegine Terre di Canossa and Castelnuovo Monti.Years of careful restoration have preserved the original stone structure of the village and the buildings, perched around the ancient tower and the square, give the visitor the charm and amazement of a journey through time, in a silence full of history. The atmosphere is unforgettable when in the village, animated by costumed people, flag-wavers, ancient crafts, you relive the life of the Middle Ages.
