This little centre is built on the right side of "Valle Versa", in the nearby of the road that take you to Piacenza area. We have certain document and ruins of its exhistance tanks to a document dated 1014, where Arrigo I, gave it to the Bishop of Pavia; from 1412 to 1629 it belonged to " Beccaria ". Since 1691 until the latest years of the XVIII century it belonged to Belcredi family . You have to see the Parish Church dedicated to Santi Cosma e Damiano built around the second half of the '600, inside you can admire several art works like the Sacrity Wardrobe of the XVIII century, and in the garden of the Canonic an ancient grave stone of Roman Ages. Several Sagre, between the others on Mars we celebrate S. Giuseppe, the " Frittella " (like a pancake, typical Carnival biscuits), made by sweet pastry fried into the oil, and on July the Sagra of "Moscato di Volpara" excellent dessert wine, sweet and parfumed. |
