Rocca di Montalfeo is an ancient settlement of the Malaspina Marquises, located in Godiasco, a short distance from Salice Terme. In the past, the Staffora Valley was a strategic location; Monte Alfeo lies directly on the ancient Via del Sale, which carried this precious commodity from Genoa to Milan. Today, Rocca di Montalfeo is a medieval-style castle perched atop a hill, open only for special occasions, events, or weddings.
