  • This powerful architectonic complex dates back to the 10th century and it is strongly highlighted by the City Hall’s structure that was built around the Abbey. The Abbey was built by the St. Colombano Monks of Bobbio and after it was restored in 1244 it was named after St. Andrea. Throughout the centuries it underwent various transformations and expansions such as the building of a Baroque chapel, the raising of the central nave, and in 1835 a window was added to the facade

  • Bene, questa volta sono il primo a complimentarmi con te, mi hai fatto conoscere un posto stupendo. Se mi dai qualche dritta su come arrivarci, lo andrò a visitare sicuramente (altrimenti mi arrangio col web). Dovresti farti dare un contributo dall'ente del turismo della Liguria per tutta la nella pubblicità che stai facendo alla tua regione! Sergio
