モンティーリオモンフェラートの洞窟・トップ7

A short stop in Passerano Marmorito allows you to reach the Parish Castle, the town's historical landmark.

nice village on the Turin hills

Both the castle and the village are beautiful.

Beautiful village, with church and castle located in an elevated position compared to the passing road. A beautiful walk passes in front of the church and leads to an isolated bell tower. Another road branches off and leads to the castle, at the highest point of the town, which houses a museum and nursery and primary schools. Both from the castle and from the promenade, beautiful views of the surrounding hills. On the promenade, the monuments to the Alpini and the Fallen, and two fountains, both functioning.

Nice little village, which concentrates various points of interest in its centre. First of all the castle, dating back to the 11th century: restored and renovated, so much so that at first I took it for a 19th century neo-Gothic replica! Next, the church of San Giovanni Battista, in front of the castle: an eighteenth-century building then remodeled in the nineteenth century, with a beautiful exposed brick façade, simple and effective. Remarkable, a short distance away, is the Regio Asilo Matta, a nineteenth-century nursery school, which breathes in the scents of De Amicis. On the road towards Turin, in a fork in the road, is the small church of San Rocco, also an eighteenth or nineteenth century neoclassical construction, simple but not to be missed.

Nice to see, you have to go up a bit.

The hill behind the castle with 40 fallow deer, which they bought in Holland 4 years ago which they use to keep the hill clean.

Beautiful castle open to the public only on occasion, not to be missed.
