Verzuolo

Highlight • Settlement

Verzuolo, located in the Varaita Valley, boasts a medieval village rich in history and architecture. The castle, built in 1377 by the Marquis Federico II of Saluzzo on the ruins of a previous fortress from the 11th century, dominates the town from above.
The village preserves medieval elements, such as decorated peaks and terracotta friezes from the 15th century, as well as a house with a typical Gothic structure.
The parish church of Saints Philip and James, built in the 18th century, houses significant works of art, including a fresco depicting the "Pietà" dated 1422.
The recent history of Verzuolo is linked to the Burgo paper mill, founded at the beginning of the 20th century by the engineer Luigi Burgo, who contributed to the economic development of the area.

Civic Tower (Bell Tower of the Brambles)

Highlight • Monument

One of the symbols of Manta, this tower served as a guard for the medieval mastiff. Towards the end of the 19th century it was adapted into a bell tower with a large clock. Despite its unpretentious appearance, it is visible from every part of the town.
