Romagnese

In the mountainous area of the Oltrepò Pavese, not far from the Penice Pass, lies the small village of Romagnese, surrounded by green mountains and shady woods, in a landscape where nature is the sole and undisputed queen. In this natural setting of great beauty, however, the village manages to fit in harmoniously, with its houses that seem to climb along the massif around the ancient medieval castle. Today, the castle is home to the town hall and its tower houses the Museum of Rural Art and Agricultural Instruments. Rich in small, precious churches and ancient buildings all built with local stone, which also tell of the village's medieval past, Romagnese is a place that welcomes with its simplicity and grace.
