Castelnuovo Calcea, located in the heart of the Monferrato Astigiano, has ancient origins linked to the Ligurian Statielli, Celts, and Gauls, before Roman colonization (Castrum Novum ad Calcea). The medieval village, known for its castle, destroyed several times starting in 1155, was a fiefdom of the Marquises of Incisa, the Trotti family, and finally the Savoy family in 1735.

A beautiful castle complex and two churches, set against a panoramic backdrop of the Asti hills.

With a plaque for the "Martyrs of Freedom": Ferrero Domenico Ferruccio from Castelnuovo was a partisan in the Giustizia & Liberta formations, killed in action on March 26, 1945, during the fighting in Agliano, not far from here. http://intranet.istoreto.it/partigianato/dettaglio.asp?id=35746 Bianco Luigi Loris was a farmer from Castelnuovo and a partisan in an autonomous unit. He was captured during a clearing operation on December 6, 1944, and deported to Germany. He died during the death march from Flossenbürg to Dachau. https://israt.it/banche-dati/deportati-politici-astigiani.html https://www.pietredellamemoria.it/pietre/monumento-ai-caduti-di-castelnuovo-calcea/

It rises in Astesana, in the tourist area called "Le Colline dei Fiumi", on the watershed of the Tanaro and Borbore rivers, controlling the important ridge line that connected Asti to Roero.

The castle, configured in a single and imposing square volume, reveals evident architectural stylistic differences, originating from the layout choices undertaken in the 17th century by the legitimate owners. Starting from 1625, the Asinari nobles shared the rank of "counts of Costigliole" with the noble Verasis family. This complex was therefore divided between two feudal lords, who, with autonomous determination, gave rise to transformations and embellishments on subjective bases. The northern part of the manor, pertaining to the Asinari, retains the appearance derived from the interventions of the second half of the eighteenth century, duly inspired by the architectural canons propagated by Benedetto Alfieri. At the same time, the external aspect of the southern part, pertaining to the Verasis, constitutes an interesting example of neo-medieval stylistic re-proposition, dating back to the first decades of the 19th century.

Strada Mazzola in its (almost) final part before the outlet on the Valmanera road.

Image taken from the top of the first micro-tear that comes after the square. Viatosto is and will always remain a perfect place for those who love walking or cycling.

After the small square of the bar, take the road that goes up. There are actually two strappetti, one after the other in sequence but short and feasible, after which the road forks and if you keep to the right, you take strada Mazzola. Within 1.5 km you return to the foot of the small hill for Viatosto. Nice little street, very very quiet.
