Immersed in the greenery of the Favret meadows, the small church of Santa Maria Maddalena dates back to the 12th century, when it was an autonomous parish dependent on the Chapter of the Cathedral of Aosta. Its apse and bell tower, characterized by an evocative "spur" that supports the structure, preserve intact the imposing sobriety of the primordial Romanesque. Between 1460 and 1463 the church experienced a second artistic splendor: the nave was enlarged and both the external part (facade) and the interior were decorated with a rich cycle of frescoes by Giacomino da Ivrea and his itinerant workshop. The façade features lively scenes: the Mass of Saint Gregory with the blood of Christ filling the chalice; Saint George facing the dragon; Saint Christopher ferrying the Baby Jesus; and, crowning all, Saint Martha, Saint Mary Magdalene and Saint Lazarus. Inside, in the apse, a majestic Christ Pantocrator is revealed surrounded by the symbols of the four evangelists, while on the side walls the twelve Apostles can be distinguished. Under the arch that divides the choir and the nave, fourteen panels tell the stories of Mary Magdalene. The works of the fifteenth century were commissioned by the noble De Villa (or La Tour de Villa), lords of Gressan, or by Giacomo dei Challant, lord of Aymavilles, whose family appears in the frescoed symbols. The building maintained the status of parish until 1786, when it was incorporated into Santo Stefano, thus becoming a simple chapel. In 1938, the church was the subject of passionate restoration: the paintings, covered with lime for centuries, were recovered and brought back to their ancient splendor.

At the gates of Gressan, next to the Dora Baltea and along the cycle path that connects Sarre to Pontey, there is the splendid green area "Les Îles". Extending over a surface area of 38,959 m2, it is dedicated to the practice of traditional games and surrounded by a 1,028-meter cycle ring, which can also be used as a fitness trail, jogging track and roller skating track. The area is equipped with a children's playground, an artificial sports climbing gym, two fountains and numerous benches. Access is free, but in some periods of the year it may be partially limited to allow training and competitions of traditional local games such as rebatta, fiolet and tzan. In particular, from March 1 to May 31 and from September 1 to October 15, a part of the area and the related section of the cycle path are reserved for these activities. In the immediate vicinity there are bars, restaurants and a private sports center with a swimming pool and padel courts, both indoor and outdoor, with catering service. The entire area is connected to the Montfleury sports center in Aosta via a cycle/pedestrian walkway that crosses the Dora Baltea and is served by two convenient parking lots.

The regional capital is located in the middle of the valley of the same name. The city still has the layout of the old Roman castrum, and in the car-free centre several monuments recall the Roman period. Aosta was a lively religious centre in the Middle Ages. St. Anselm, the later Archbishop of Canterbury who died in 1109, was born here. Today Aosta is a busy tourist hub at the crossroads of the roads to the Great St. Bernard Pass and Switzerland.

The Torre del Lebbroso dates back to the 13th century and stands on the western corner of the old Roman city walls of Augusta Praetoria. The tower was originally built on the foundations of an earlier Roman tower. The tower was once owned by the noble De Friour family. Later it was used as part of the Hospice de charité and served as a residence for a leper named Pietro Bernardo Guasco. The tower is also famous for the book “Le lépreux de la cité d’Aoste” (translated as “The Leper of the City of Aosta”), written by Xavier de Maistre. Today the Torre del Lebbroso belongs to the Regione Autonoma Valle d’Aosta and is used as an exhibition space.
