The House of the Belle of Torriglia

Highlight • Historical Site

The Beauty of Torriglia is a legend that symbolizes the village in the Ligurian Apennines. It tells of a young woman of extraordinary beauty, desired by all but never married—hence the Genoese proverb, "A l'é a bella de Torriggia: tutti a vêuan e nisciûn s'a piggia."

Montoggio

Highlight • Settlement

Montoggio is a village in the Genoese hinterland, nestled among the woods and hills of the upper Bisagno Valley. It's located about thirty kilometers from Genoa, but the atmosphere is completely different: the landscape here is made up of tranquil valleys, clear streams, and small clusters of houses scattered among meadows and chestnut groves. Dominating the village from above are the ruins of the Fieschi Castle, which controlled the valley in the Middle Ages and was the scene of clashes between ancient Ligurian noble families, leaving behind an aura of history that blends harmoniously with the tranquility of the surrounding nature.
