This climb is quite steep, so slow down and take a breath to tackle it.

Also known by the name of "Piazza delle Banca", Piazza Umberto I hosts the Town Hall and usually also the village festival called Cena sotto le stelle.

Known as the "curves of the lake" due to the presence of a lake where the municipal swimming pool now stands, Via Brigate Garibaldine leads from the ring road directly to the center of Costigliole d'Asti, with a detour to the Rocca or towards Via Roma, the backbone of the town.

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.

Castagnole delle Lanze, a place between the Langhe and Monferrato hills, in the province of Asti and not far from Alba, takes its name from "castinea", which means "small chestnut" in Latin, and from the Lancia family, who owned the territories between 1190 and 1206. This small community is divided into two parts: the historic center, located in the hilltop village of San Pietro, and the new village or low country.

From the Giant Red Bench of Cascina Castlet you have a splendid view of the Rocca di Costigliole d'Asti and the surrounding hills.

The Rocca di Costigliole d'Asti, located in the historic center of Costigliole d'Asti, reveals the roots of an ancient past. Toponyms like "Burio" reveal the pre-Roman settlement of the Ligurian Eburiates. Significant finds, such as the prehistoric pirogue and the Roman stele, have been discovered along the Tanaro river. In 1041, an official document ratifies the possession of Pietro, Bishop of Asti, by Emperor Henry III.
