    Already inhabited in pre-Roman times, the area of Cortemilia was known as Cohors Aemilia in Roman times. In the Middle Ages the town developed around the fortress of which portions of the walls and the cylindrical tower remain visible even from afar and which dominates the town. The city center is divided in two by the Bormida river, thus originating the two districts of San Michele and San Pantaleo, which take their names from their respective churches. noteworthy is the former Franciscan convent, which is said to have been commissioned by St. Francis himself who, according to what is said, passed through Cortemilia. Currently the town is renowned both for the production of the "tonda gentile" hazelnut, and for the terraces planted with vines, from which the Dolcetto is obtained.

      Small medieval village in the heart of the Alta Langa, a stone's throw from Alba, immersed in the green hills, among hazelnut groves and vineyards, the ideal place for those who love outdoor sports, contact with nature, good food and good wine.
