In the province of Alessandria

 

Every part of the Province of Alessandria has been touched and shaped by the slow, constant passage of people, of merchants and pilgrims, who made their way along the Via Francigena. Pilgrims in particular left their mark in the form of religious traditions, places that fascinate with their rich heritage of history and art, but which also bear witness to popular culture.
The places of interest have been selected with the cooperation of the Department for Architecture, Countryside, Heritage, Art and History for the Region of Piedmont: the selection therefore includes the most important examples in terms of history, art and architecture with, at the same time, guaranteed opening hours and opening periods or a booking facility designed to meet the needs of tourists.
