    Hiking

    The Rocca d'Olgisio is one of the oldest and most evocative fortified complexes in the Piacenza area, both for its position dominating the Tidone and Chiarone streams and for its architecture.

    Its history dates back to the 11th century, when it belonged to the monks of S. Savino of Piacenza; conquered in 1378 by Gian Galeazzo Visconti, he handed it over to the Dal Verme family, to whom it belonged, with intervals, until the mid-nineteenth century.
    Since 1979 it has been owned by the Bengalli family.
