Church and Baptistery of San Giovanni Battista, Vigolo Marchese

Highlight • Religious Site

The spectacular Romanesque complex of Vigolo Marchese consists of the church of San Giovanni Battista, founded in 1008, and the beautiful circular baptistery, even older. There is also the tower, originally defensive then transformed into a bell tower: a unicum of extraordinary historical importance and poignant beauty. Unmissable.

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Prato Barbieri (Bettola) is, in fact, the place that acts as a watershed between Val Nure and Val D'Arda. Its strategic position, in fact, can be reached from 3 different sides: Bettola, Gropparello and Morfasso, makes it a very popular destination for cycling enthusiasts and motorcyclists.

Gropparello Castle

Highlight • Castle

The castle was born as a medieval fortification in the Vezzeno Valley. The manor, surrounded by Guelph battlements, is defended by towers, the entrance one with a drawbridge and the mighty central keep. The Castle of Gropparello, known in ancient times as "Rocca di Cagnano", is a characteristic example of a medieval fortification built to defend the access route to a valley, conceived as a true eagle's nest overlooking the cliff, and therefore absolutely unassailable .. The oldest document known so far about Gropparello dates back to the year 810, and is the deed with which the emperor Charlemagne granted the place as a fief to the then bishop of Piacenza Giuliano II.
