Millesimo

Millesimo is one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. The village has a romantic centre and features numerous interesting attractions.

A medieval character is created by the house façades of the main street and the Pontevecchio Gaietta bridge.

Moreover, there are still some old castle ruins near Millesimo in which events are held partly also in the summer.

The Napoleon museum which is located underneath the Castello Del Carretto castle is also worth a visit.

A romantic church, the Santa Maria Extramuros, which contains precious Gothic fresco paintings, can be visited.

The big pilgrimage church of Santuario Della Madonna Del Deserto, situated on the upper side of the locality, to which pilgrimages are still being organized even today, is also particularly recommendable. The truffles, which also have a special festival dedicated to them in the autumn, are a specialty from Millesimo.

The region also has a particular attraction for the sportsmen. Beautiful walkways and cycling tracks run through the Parco Naturale Regional di Bric Tana which is found around Millesimo.

A big reservoir lake, the Lago di Osiglia, is located very close to Millesimo, approx. 15 km away. Even water sportsmen get their money’s worth in this place.

Canoes, Kayaks and paddleboats are available for hire there.
