    Hiking

    The village was abandoned in the 16th century, perhaps due to the plague, traces of walls covered by earth and leaves remain. The church of San Clemente remains, dating back to the XIII century and located about 300 meters from the tower.

    The tower was part of a house-fortress, built for the Rusca's family. Of the four-storey rectangular tower, the walls are more than one meter thick, about 15 meters high.

    Located in the woods south of Vaglio, the Redde tower and the Church of S. Clemente were part of an inhabited complex including a village (Redde), the house-fortress and a church.
