산 크리스토포로‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪7‬개의 동굴

Nestled among centuries-old trees, Camino Castle dominates the ancient village from above and contributes to one of the most easily recognizable hilltop profiles of the Lower Monferrato.

In the heart of Monferrato, Terruggia preserves a compact historic center and a medieval castle, now a private villa.

10th century castle, now private for receptions and events. In the Castle Square there is the Town Hall (the building looks like a small church with a clock), on the ground floor there is the post office but above all there is a fountain with fresh water even in August

The detour to Desana allows for a route up to the village on a gravel road. Very nice. In Desana, next to the Church, a small fountain useful for refilling water

Among the monuments, the city castle stands out, the first records of which date back to the year 1034.

A small community on the plain, of ancient origin, probably Roman, it bases its economy on traditional agricultural activity accompanied by a growing development of related tourism.

One of the most spectacular castles in Monferrato and equipped with crenellated walls and towers. As with many ancient buildings in Italy, there are many legends about the castle of Camino. One of the most recurrent narrates that in the year 1494, Count Scarampo Scarampi, feudal lord of the Marquis of Monferrato, was accused of making forays into neighboring villages causing problems such as thefts and fires. After a long siege of the castle, which lasted two months, it was captured by the militias of Costantino Aranite, prefect of Casale. His wife, the Marquise Camilla, managed to escape from a secret passage and reach Casale to ask for a safe conduct for her husband's life. Scarampo Scarampi, however, had already been beheaded by those who had imprisoned him. When she learned of her husband's sad fate, out of desperation, the Marquise Camilla threw herself from the tower. Now, she walks around the battlements of the castle crying, while her husband walks around the manor with his head in his hand. Legend aside, in the inner courtyard of the castle of Camino there is the sarcophagus of the noble Scarampo, depicted at rest holding his head with his left hand.

There are feelings of peace and silence.
