The Parish Church of San Bernardo in Prato Sesia is an ancient basilica-style building with three naves, located in the Novara area.

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.

Cycle path that runs along the road to Biandrate

Pedestrian area, also suitable for bicycles (but be careful of pedestrian traffic, especially on weekends!)

Beautiful infrastructure on the Agogna at the entrance to Novara on the road to Biandrate

Beautiful vineyards overlooking the hills of the lower Valsesia

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.
