Vicoforte Sanctuary

Highlight • Religious Site

The sanctuary of Vicoforte, with its horizontal and elliptical dome, is the largest of its kind in the world. Inside, some members of the House of Savoy have found their final resting place.

It is absolutely worth climbing into the dome. To avoid overcrowding problems it is best to book your visit, especially during the high season.

Pamparato town center

Highlight • Settlement

Pamparato has been inhabited since ancient times; in fact, some Roman tombstones have been found nearby and the bridge, now known as S. Lucia, of Roman origin has been preserved. It is made of stone, with two arches of different sizes.
The country is mentioned for the first time in a 911 act in which its borders are specified. The country was able to conquer its autonomy up to stand as a municipality and to draw up, in 1391, the Statutes.
In 1535 it became part of the Savoy dominions. Pamparato was in fact for a long time the district capital and the seat of important trade with the plain, with the Ligurian hinterland and with the cities of the coast. Only a few ruins remain of the oldest castle perched on a hill near the town, while the new castle "Cordero di Montezemolo" (17th century), currently the Town Hall, stands in the center of the town on a small hill.
