ヴェルツオーロのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Verzuolo Castle is very beautiful, surrounded by ghost stories and strange voices that can be heard at night... I would say it is a fabulous castle 👻👻👻👻

some non-trivial descents

Built in the 13th century as a military outpost, Manta Castle was transformed in the 15th century by Valerano, regent of the Marquisate of Saluzzo, into a sumptuous family residence. The Baronial Hall was decorated with unique frescoes on the culture of chivalry, including the Fountain of Youth and figures of heroes and heroines of antiquity. In the 16th century, the complex underwent further modifications, including the Salone delle Grottesche, decorated in Mannerist style. Next to the castle, don't miss the church with frescoes on the Passion of Christ and the panoramic park on the Varaita valley.

Verzuolo, located in the Varaita Valley, boasts a medieval village rich in history and architecture. The castle, built in 1377 by the Marquis Federico II of Saluzzo on the ruins of a previous fortress from the 11th century, dominates the town from above. The village preserves medieval elements, such as decorated peaks and terracotta friezes from the 15th century, as well as a house with a typical Gothic structure. The parish church of Saints Philip and James, built in the 18th century, houses significant works of art, including a fresco depicting the "Pietà" dated 1422. The recent history of Verzuolo is linked to the Burgo paper mill, founded at the beginning of the 20th century by the engineer Luigi Burgo, who contributed to the economic development of the area.
