ガッティナラの洞窟・トップ6

Il Castello di Barengoは、集落の背後にある丘の上にそびえ立ち、周囲の平野よりも高い位置にあり、元々はフランチェーナ街道とセシア川の浅瀬を結んでいた道に沿ってあります。 元の15世紀の構造は、何世紀にもわたって数多くの変更と改変を受け、19世紀初頭にはすでに部分的に廃墟となっていました。 1849年、ロッカは修復工事を受け、元の構造が変更されました。 第一次世界大戦後、所有権はガウデンツィオ・トルニエッリ・ディ・ボルゴラヴェッツァーロ伯爵に移り、彼は建築家カルロ・ニグラに中世の様式規範に従って複合施設の再建を依頼しました。 その後の修復は、現在の所有者であるボロリ家によって行われました。 再建にもかかわらず、スタンドの壁、基礎、いくつかの入り口のドアなど、元の構造の多くの証拠が残っています。

At the top of Mount San Lorenzo this fortress was built in 1187 by decision of the Municipality of Vercelli in agreement with Bishop Alberto, owner of the territory. The castle was built in about three years, and the municipal statutes required that it be inhabited by the castellan with the whole family and with a small permanent garrison.

The Castle of San Lorenzo owes its name to the church of San Lorenzo which was located inside the walls of the Castle. The castle is 504 m above sea level, overlooking the valley where the Sesia flows and you can enjoy an exceptional 360 degree view.

Anyone traveling along the road from Romagnano to Prato Sesia cannot fail to notice the remaining tower of the Sopramonte castle. It is easily reachable with a path and a road that leads to the nearby church

When you arrive in Carpignano Sesia you almost don't realize that there is a hidden medieval heart. Ask the inhabitants to tell you how to reach the "Castle", as the Carpignanese call it. What you will see are walls built with river stones laid out in a herringbone pattern. They are houses that also date back to the 15th century. Even if some were then plastered, losing their characteristic herringbone pattern.
