Beautiful old town with imposing buildings and views of the mountains.

As Stefano wrote above, the town is built with the mountain techniques of the past centuries: stone and lime. If you are also a good eater, you cannot ignore the recipe for "zuppa di ajucche" from Valchiusella, a traditional dish of the region, made with a wild herb called "ajucche" (or "ajucche" in the local dialect). The typical recipe involves cooking bread, ajucche, and a mature mountain cheese, in overlapping layers, and then moistened with the cooking water of the herbs...

Victoria is yawning with new joints... :-P

Agliè, an enchanting village in the heart of Canavese, boasts a thousand-year history that has its roots in the Roman era. The original nucleus, probably located on the hills of the current hamlet of Santa Maria delle Grazie, was known as "Macunciacum" and depended on the Abbazia Fruttuaria di San Benigno. Agliè, as a fortified village, emerges in documents in 1141, when the feudal lords of Canavese divided the territory. The town became one of the lands of the San Martino di Rivarolo and Agliè, a family that would profoundly mark the history of the village. Despite the feudal struggles that raged in the region, Agliè maintained relative stability, even if it was not immune to looting and devastation. With the arrival of the Savoy, Agliè experienced a period of growth and development. In 1448, the village obtained municipal statutes, a sign of autonomy and recognition. The most emblematic figure of this period was Count Filippo San Martino di Agliè, a man of culture and prominent politician. Minister of Cristina of France, regent of the Duchy of Savoy, Filippo transformed the castle of Agliè into a sumptuous residence, enriching it with works of art and gardens. Today, Agliè is a village that preserves its historical and artistic charm intact. The Ducal Castle, with its gardens and richly decorated rooms, is an unmissable destination for visitors. The streets of the village, with their stone houses and noble palaces, tell the story of a place that has managed to preserve its identity over the centuries.

With a small digression from the church square you can reach the Ricetto Medievale which is located at the highest point of the town; you can still see the powerful bastions with the doors to the warehouses, now walled up. Food supplies were stored here and all the citizens took refuge when armies passed by, to defend themselves from theft and violence by the often hungry soldiers.

The Church of San Pietro is the church of the cemetery of Vialfrè of which a beautiful Romanesque bell tower is visible with a large single-lancet window and a double-lancet window, probably built by those who erected the bell tower of the Fruttuaria and of S. Stefano di Ivrea. This bell tower of the 12th century is a further testimony of the importance of Vialfrè in the medieval period. It is the bell tower of the ancient parish church dedicated to San Pietro. The main building is 12 steps long and 6 steps wide and has two altars.

Many beautiful routes and well-marked paths at the Morena di Vialfrè which is part of the Morena Destra di Ivrea.
