아시리아노 베르셀레제‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 동굴

On the edge of a natural terrace of the Sesia river, in a short side street from Piazza Vodano you can admire the beautiful and solid tower that in ancient times was part of the medieval castle known as Torre dei Visconti, dating from the twelfth century. In compact red bricks, it has a square plan and is crowned by split battlements resting on a triple motif of sawtooth stones. In ancient times, a few small windows on either side served as light connections. The building was probably connected to the early medieval castrum of which traces have been lost: documents dating from the eleventh and thirteenth centuries indicate the fortified complex "Castro della torre".

The Visconti Castle in Vercelli, Italy, is a medieval castle that stands proudly in the heart of the city. Built at the end of the 13th century, the castle has undergone several transformations over the years. Today it serves as the seat of the Tribunal of Vercelli. The original design, attributed to Matteo Visconti, follows the classic pattern of the Visconti castles of the Lombardy plains: square, with towers at each corner, two entrances on opposite sides, and an inner courtyard. In addition to serving as a symbol of Visconti power over Vercelli, the castle also strengthened the city walls on the south side. Over time, the castle fell into disrepair, but was restored and adapted for various purposes. During the Franco-Spanish War in the 17th century, the castle was damaged during the Spanish siege of 1638. It served as a residence for the governors of Vercelli during the Napoleonic era and later housed the prison. Further restorations were carried out in the 20th century, allowing the castle to regain its original grandeur. Today the castle can only be admired from the outside and is used internally only for official state functions.

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.

There are feelings of peace and silence.
