Trappa of Sordevolo

Highlight • Historical Site

La Trappa is an imposing five-story stone structure built in the second half of the eighteenth century by the Ambrosetti wool merchants and owes its name to a congregation of Trappist monks fleeing revolutionary France, who lived there between 1796 and 1802.
It is currently home to a farm stay and cultural events

Monumental Cemetery of Oropa

Highlight • Monument

The monumental cemetery of Oropa is unique in its kind, so much so that it has earned the name of "forest cemetery". The alpine environment blends incredibly with the area of monuments, which take on unique characteristics here. Tombs like small mountain chalets, with wooden and stone roofs and external plaster. Definitely worth a visit if you are a fan of the genre.
