With just over 100 inhabitants, this small municipality in lower Monferrato sits atop a hill at 280 meters above sea level.

It is one of the tiniest villages in the area, dominated by the presence of the local building stone, used extensively in homes and monuments. The yellow squared stones bear clear marks of manual chiseling, and many houses feature shutters painted in a distinctive shade of blue. The abundance of this sandstone indicates the geological composition of the area, and, as in nearby villages, residents have excavated cellars beneath their homes over the years. These renowned underground spaces, known as “Infernot,” are often open to visitors.

At the end of a square, offering panoramic views of the surrounding hills, stands a small medieval church dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul, notable for its distinctly leaning bell tower.

Thanks to its location, the village is an ideal starting point for walking routes to nearby towns such as Cella Monte, Rosignano, and Moleto. Visitors can also stop by one of the area’s most characteristic Big Benches, called “la dora,” known for its striking golden color.
