Monastero Bormida

Highlight • Settlement

Monastero - the name suggests it - was founded by a group of Benedictine monks who, around 1050, came from San Benigno Canavese called by Aleramo, Marquis of Monferrato, to till and sow the lands devastated by the Saracens. The current castle corresponds precisely to the site of the original monastery.

Among the typical dishes of Monastero Bormida we certainly remember polenta (an opportunity to taste it is during the Polentonissimo Festival, which takes place on the second Sunday of March from afar) 1573 and puccia (polenta cooked in a vegetable broth).

Vengore Tower

Highlight • Monument

The Vengore tower, dating back to the second half of the 14th century, has the typical characteristics of watch towers.
With a square base, it is almost 30 meters high and mighty (the thickness of the wall at the base is over two meters).
The wide defense moat is still present.
