ベッレグラ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

This mill, built by Benedictine monks around the year 1000, was a fundamental point of reference for the inhabitants of the town and the surrounding areas. For centuries, people brought grain here to be ground, relying on the power of the water that, even today, flows clear and abundant. Today, all that remains of the Mola are the sturdy walls and the room where the milling took place, immersed in an almost fairy-tale landscape. All around, the river makes its way through moss and waterfalls, creating water games and reflections of light that make the atmosphere magical, especially in the early hours of the morning or at sunset. It is easy to let your imagination run wild and think about what life here must have been like once upon a time, with the noise of the millstones and the smell of freshly baked bread that spread through the houses of Jenne. The Vecchia Mola is not only a place of historical memory, but also an oasis of uncontaminated nature. In the surrounding area there are crystalline springs, such as that of the Cardellino, and paths that invite you to explore woods, caves and small waterfalls. Traveling along these routes, you often meet hikers, families and nature lovers, all attracted by the simple and authentic beauty of this corner of Lazio.

These are the ruins of Nero's villa, on the road that goes from Subiaco towards the Benedictine monasteries.

Between the towns of Colle Rampo and Polledrara, about 6 km from Paliano, there is this fortified farmhouse with a 13th-century square tower. The Sacco river valley has been the obligatory passage point between Lazio and Campania since the Roman period. The isolated towers, built inland at strategic points, formed a system of garrison and optical signaling between them. The de' Piscoli tower was the lookout outpost of the Prenestina and Latina roads. In the Middle Ages it was the obligatory passage to enter the Palianese territory, given that the road that led to Paliano passed over the Ponte della Mola, where there was a sentry who made people pay the crossing fee, called pontatico.

Well preserved and maintained, there is a picnic area that is excellent for a food break and a nap.

The river Aniene passes underneath it

tower that seems to come out of nowhere :)

the San Francesco Bridge connects the two banks of the Aniene river at the entrance to the city of Subiaco (RM). Entirely built in blocks of local stone called cardellino, it is a perfectly preserved humpback bridge on a single span with a guard tower on one side.

A beautiful passage near Paliano, to reach this fortified farmhouse with a 13th century square tower.
