Very beautiful village, well worth a visit

The Romanesque parish church, dedicated to San Colombano, stood near the ancient castle. Of the church, built in the 22nd century, all that remains are the bell tower and the apse with the main altar. The 15th century frescoes from the apse walls are displayed in the rectory, among which the one depicting the Coronation of the Virgin stands out.

It is dedicated to the Irish saint who evangelized vast areas of Gaul and Germany, founder of monasteries including that of Bobbio, where he died in 615. The church was built at the end of the 19th century to replace the older parish church, of which the bell tower and apse still remain on a hill overlooking the Arda. Inside, with a single nave, there is a valuable statue by the Flemish Jan Geernaert.

The scarecrows are gone

Panoramic terrace overlooking the valley. Too bad for that ugly factory that disturbs pleasure

worth a visit to the castle and the ride in the hills is also beautiful and scenic

Last Castle visited one of the most beautiful and also the most suffered due to the kilometers traveled and the final climb. The Borgo di Vigoleno stands out for the elegance of its forms and for the integrity of the defensive system. Certified among the most beautiful villages in Italy and Orange Flag by the Italian Touring Club, Vigoleno is a perfect example of medieval housing logic. On the imposing crenellated walls, crossed in part by a panoramic walkway, the bulk of the keep stands out. From the main square, where the sixteenth-century fountain is located, going east you reach the Romanesque church of San Giorgio, from the second half of the twelfth century. Vigoleno is a fraction of the municipality of Vernasca, in the province of Piacenza. Located on the crest of a not very high relief, it enjoys a wide panorama of the surrounding valleys and hills …

Pietra Nera, a beautiful rocky outcrop of ophiolitic origin (Mesozoic era, Jurassic period, about 155 million years ago), is located on the right bank of the Stirone stream and at the foot of the Borgo di Vigoleno. This area was previously dedicated to the extraction of serpentinite (ophiolite from the Greek "ophis" -> snake), composed of silicates of magnesium and iron and small quantities of magnetite whose crystalline structure leads these minerals to overlap in thin flakes which give the rock a "scaly" shape similar to the skin of reptiles) and the small lake, located at the foot of the rock, is due precisely to these quarrying activities.
