Beautiful bridge connecting Hone to Bard. Magnificent view of the fort.

Bard Fort, which has remained virtually unchanged since its reconstruction, is one of the best examples of a dam fort from the early 19th century. The stronghold has three main buildings, on different levels, between 400 and 467 metres high: from the lowest, the Ouvrage Ferdinand, to the middle, the Ouvrage Victor and at the top, the Ouvrage Charles-Albert, a set of 283 buildings. pieces. The Ouvrage Ferdinand is shaped like a pair of pincers and has two buildings, the Ouvrage Ferdinand Inférieur and the Ouvrage Ferdinand Supérieur. The Mortai Works, located behind the latter, and the adjacent Powder Magazine house the rooms intended for educational laboratories. About halfway up the rock, the Ouvrage Victor with “Les Alpes des Enfants”, an interactive trail. At the top, the most imposing of the three works comprises an enclosure on which all the buildings rest and which encloses the Gola works, the courtyard, which can defend the south side, and the Charles-Albert works and the large quadrangular courtyard of Place d'Armes, surrounded by large arcades. The first floor of the Ouvrage Charles-Albert is dedicated to the “Musée des Alpes”. In the book, you will also find a guided tour of the history of the Fort, in the prison rooms.

The impressive fortress of Bard dominates the upper valley of the Dora Baltea. After being dismantled in 1800 by order of Napoleon, it was rebuilt in the 19th century by the House of Savoy.

At the mouth of the Champorcher Valley, Hône is divided into three different areas: the main town in the plain of the valley, the sunny side of the “adret” with terraced slopes and villages and the wooded expanse of the wild and rugged “vers” slope.

Hône, a charming village in the Valle d’Aosta region, Italy, is located at the entrance to the Champorcher Valley. It is located on the left bank of the Ayasse river, on the orographic right bank of the Dora Baltea river. In the Middle Ages, the village played a strategic role, as it was owned by the Bard lordship. 🏰

The Chiesa Parrocchiale di San Giorgio, also known as the Parish Church of St. George, is a historic church dating back to the 17th century. This church is located in the center of Hône, a charming village in the Valle d’Aosta region, Italy. The church is mentioned in a papal bull of Pope Alexander III from 1176. It was one of the parish churches under the authority of the bishop. In the first decades of the 18th century, the church was rebuilt. The current building dates from that time. The altar was consecrated in 1722 and later, in 1724, further modifications were made by the sculptor Gaspare Serra from Tollegno, Biella. The Gilardi brothers, famous for their work in the Valle di Champorcher, created the statues on the triumphal arch in 1742. In 1833 the lower part of the church was almost completely rebuilt by master Giuseppe Lancia from Boccioleto, Valsesia, according to the design of a military engineer named Servetti. In 1897 the interior walls were beautifully painted by the famous painters Alessandro and Augusto Artari from Verrès. The parish museum preserves a valuable bas-relief representing St. George, the Princess and the Dragon, dating from the 15th century. There is also another bas-relief of Our Lady of Mercy from the 16th century, possibly from the chapel of La Ruine, destroyed by a flood in the 17th century. The church has a campanile (bell tower) and a facade divided into two styles. The portal is made of Sarnico stone and there is a rectangular window with a cornice. The church building has three naves, a transept and a central dome, with a vaulted and sloping roof. Next to the church are the sacristy, some service rooms and the bell tower.
