nice village on the Turin hills

The Abbey of Santa Maria di Vezzolano, located in the hills of Monferrato, is a jewel of Romanesque-Gothic architecture. Dating back to the 12th century, it preserves medieval frescoes and a valuable carved pier, and is surrounded by an aura of history and spirituality.

Both the castle and the village are beautiful.

Beautiful village, with church and castle located in an elevated position compared to the passing road. A beautiful walk passes in front of the church and leads to an isolated bell tower. Another road branches off and leads to the castle, at the highest point of the town, which houses a museum and nursery and primary schools. Both from the castle and from the promenade, beautiful views of the surrounding hills. On the promenade, the monuments to the Alpini and the Fallen, and two fountains, both functioning.

The Basilica of Colle Don Bosco has a somewhat questionable architectural style, but when it was built it was very popular. But you don't go to the Colle for the architecture: you go to breathe the presence of Don Bosco and San Domenico Savio, and in the meantime you also enjoy a panorama that is a true corner of Paradise.

There are many reasons to visit the Becchi: historical, religious, or even just for the view - from Don Bosco's house you can see a corner of Paradise. Those who love Don Bosco will be moved.

Of particular interest in the interior of the church, a rarity, the pier above the first span. See photo.

The church of Santi Nazario e Celso stands completely isolated about two kilometers north-east of Montechiaro d'Asti on the slopes of a green hill (the "Bric San Nazario"), surrounded all around by trees except on the facade. The building strikes the visitor from afar for its tall bell tower and for the chromatic effect given by the alternating bands of brick and sandstone; it constitutes an important testimony of the Romanesque architecture that developed in the XII century in the Asti Monferrato area.
