History and Art
From the Roman Age to World War II, each epoch has left evident signs in this territory. The several evidences which still can be seen demonstrate the remarkable consideration the territory has been subject to during the centuries: as a matter of fact, the human presence - even where it has been more evident - has not disturbed the beauty and the unique peculiarity of the involved places, adding the charm of human works to the works of art shaped by nature, and creating in this way the harmonious whole of rare beauty we can now admire.
