Rocca Susella, a village in the Oltrepò Pavese, has medieval origins linked to the Rocha de Axixellae or Saxillae, an ancient fortress subject to the bishops of Tortona. The name derives from the fortified fortress perched on a cliff. Over time, it was a fiefdom of the Ruino, Gambarana, and Ghislanzoni families. The castle and the Romanesque parish church of San Zaccaria are noteworthy.
