    Varziela is a typical village in the region, where the stone houses defy time and preserve the authenticity of the past. Among the various historic bridges that still stand, the Varziela Bridge stands out as the one that most clearly shows traces of medieval architecture. However, some argue that this bridge is actually a medieval reinterpretation of an older Roman structure, as was the case with other bridges in the region.

      It is not just this house that is falling into disrepair, an entire village next door is falling into disrepair.
