The Abbey of San Nazzaro Sesia is a complex made up of structures from different historical periods. The oldest parts are the bell tower, built as a watchtower, and the two wings of the narthex preceding the façade, which are what remains of the quadriportico built around 1150, shortly after the abbey itself was founded (1040). The cuts resulting from the demolition of the other two sides are still clearly visible today. The narthex is almost entirely made up of stones from the Sesia river arranged in a herringbone pattern to increase its solidity. The mortar itself was obtained from materials found on site, near the Sesia river. It was probably originally used as a “hospitalis”, that is, it served as a place of rest and refreshment for travellers and pilgrims, who we know were very numerous in medieval times, and it also had the function of hosting catechumens.

Typical village of Serra d'Ivrea...

It's called Gesiun (big church) but it's actually very small. Fascinating place even for those who aren't particularly religious. Every time I ask myself how many stories those walls have to tell...

The Serra d'Ivrea allows us, the inhabitants of the plain, to enjoy climbs and descents and woods, both on road bikes and mountain bikes. A truly enchanting place

Medieval tower located at the entrance to the town and dating back to the mid-12th century, it was a construction with military functions. Fairly well preserved, it still bears the visible coat of arms of the Caccia family.

In the Middle Ages, Mandello Vitta was a free village: a town without duties and with toll functions. The toll tower dates back to around the 12th century. It is what remains of the fortification. It probably overlooked the ancient Via Biandrina; in fact, a large arch, now walled up, is still visible in the lower part.

The locality of Sillavengo was already permanently inhabited in Roman times, as evidenced by the finds currently kept at the Civic Museum of Novara and coming from a necropolis: among a group of glass funerary objects, dating back to the 1st century AD, a dove-shaped unguent bottle and a ribbed cup stand out; also noteworthy is a small lamp from the 4th or 5th century AD, of the so-called "African" type. A small Roman altar in granite, on which in the past one could read the dedication Iovi Optimo Maximo, is still found today at the Church of San Giovanni.

A water source runs through the church underground. Looking at the facade, on the right you can see the water flowing. Inside, behind the altar, you can see the underground source.

Well-preserved tower from the 12th century, the only remaining part of a system of fortifications built on the ancient road that connected Biandrate and Romagnano and to Valsesia. About thirty meters high, with a square plan, in brick, it shows traces of subsequent ancient renovations.
