To the north of the town, on the borders between Lerma, Silvano and Castelletto d'Orba, remain the ruins of the Torre dell'Albarola. It was part of a defensive sighting system created against Saracen incursions around the year one thousand. His task was to record the signals coming from Mount Colma and, with bonfires lit on the summit, warn the nearby Gazzolo tower (S. Cristoforo), which would send the alarm to the plain. Whoever climbs the tower immediately realizes the reason for that location: from up there the view extends from the Piota valley to the entire Apennine range, and then further down towards the hills up to the Po Valley. Tradition has it that it later served as a bell tower for Santa Maria in Prelio, that is, for the parish church of Silvano d'Orba, as it is located on a hill to the east of it. Towards the end of the 17th century, the Abbey of San Filippo Neri was built near Albarola, from which the name of today's Abbazia farmhouse derives

The Sanctuary of N. S. della Guardia was erected in less than four months in 1861, thanks to the work of the population of Gavi and the populations of the surrounding towns. It stands on the pleasant Turchini hill, overlooking Gavi, and is a magnificent Greek cross temple, with slender and elegant shapes.

Anti-Saracenic sighting tower, it was part of the military defense set up by Berengario II, king of Italy, around 950. Exceptional panoramic point.

The Naturalistic Path of the Lavagnina Lakes goes into the valley of the Gorzente stream and offers those who travel along it a truly breathtaking view.
