Castelnuovo Calcea, located in the heart of the Monferrato Astigiano, has ancient origins linked to the Ligurian Statielli, Celts, and Gauls, before Roman colonization (Castrum Novum ad Calcea). The medieval village, known for its castle, destroyed several times starting in 1155, was a fiefdom of the Marquises of Incisa, the Trotti family, and finally the Savoy family in 1735.

With a plaque for the "Martyrs of Freedom": Ferrero Domenico Ferruccio from Castelnuovo was a partisan in the Giustizia & Liberta formations, killed in action on March 26, 1945, during the fighting in Agliano, not far from here. http://intranet.istoreto.it/partigianato/dettaglio.asp?id=35746 Bianco Luigi Loris was a farmer from Castelnuovo and a partisan in an autonomous unit. He was captured during a clearing operation on December 6, 1944, and deported to Germany. He died during the death march from Flossenbürg to Dachau. https://israt.it/banche-dati/deportati-politici-astigiani.html https://www.pietredellamemoria.it/pietre/monumento-ai-caduti-di-castelnuovo-calcea/

Place of worship and prayer Corso Vittorio Alfieri, 424, 14100 Asti AT http://www.santacaterina.asti.it/index.php 0141592428

Church with a particular shape with a rounded plan, a facade that recalls classical forms and a bell tower obtained from what was one of the two towers of the Roman gate of the city (in the style of the Porta Palatina of Turin). Located in the extreme part of Corso Alfieri.

The Collegiate Church of San Secondo is one of the oldest Gothic churches in Asti. With the adjacent municipal seat and opposite the square of the same name, it forms the heart of the city. Dedicated to San Secondo, patron saint of the city, it was built according to tradition on the site of his martyrdom and burial. The exact time of its foundation is not known, the oldest document mentioning the church dates from August 1, 880. Don't forget to visit the Crypt: Interpretation: The pre-Romanesque layout of the church cannot be reconstructed in any way, except by the presence of the crypt; the oldest part dates from the 6th/7th century, consisting of four small columns surmounted by Corinthian imitation capitals with a double order of leaves. Two side walls and two wrought iron gates border the "cella confessionis", within which is located the sixteenth century reliquary, in silver, with the bones of the martyr from Asti.

Heart of ancient Asti, characterized by the medieval church of San Secondo next to the eighteenth-century town hall (the building is actually sixteenth-century, but the façade was rebuilt in the eighteenth century by the architect Benedetto Alfieri). In one corner there is the Palazzo del Podestà, the seat of civil power in the Middle Ages. A short distance away are Piazza Alfieri, Via Cavour with its towers and churches from different eras, and Corso Alfieri, the backbone of the ancient city.

The castle, configured in a single and imposing square volume, reveals evident architectural stylistic differences, originating from the layout choices undertaken in the 17th century by the legitimate owners. Starting from 1625, the Asinari nobles shared the rank of "counts of Costigliole" with the noble Verasis family. This complex was therefore divided between two feudal lords, who, with autonomous determination, gave rise to transformations and embellishments on subjective bases. The northern part of the manor, pertaining to the Asinari, retains the appearance derived from the interventions of the second half of the eighteenth century, duly inspired by the architectural canons propagated by Benedetto Alfieri. At the same time, the external aspect of the southern part, pertaining to the Verasis, constitutes an interesting example of neo-medieval stylistic re-proposition, dating back to the first decades of the 19th century.

Cradle of the historic center of the city and seat of the Town Hall and the Collegiate Church of San Secondo (the church dedicated to the Patron Saint).
