Discover Togliano: Chapel, Church and Memorial Park

Historical Traces in Togliano

The Santo Stefano Chapel in Togliano's cemetery dates back to the 13th century. It combines a sacred site with a clear historical context. The chapel is therefore older than the Villa Maisano, built in 1587, and the church's square atrium from the 16th century.

The Villa Maisano was built in 1587 by Pietro della Torre as a summer residence. It contains 16th-century paintings, including a large frieze with flowers and tritons attributed to the school of Paolo Amalteo.

The Church of Saint Mauritius the Abbot in Togliano has a square atrium from the 16th century. The church also contains a marble holy water font dating from 1558. The church was restored in 1749. The 1749 restoration therefore dates from after the 1558 holy water font. The atrium, holy water font and restoration represent several phases of development that you can consider separately during a culturally focused stay.

Memorial Site at the Entrance to the Village

For orientation in Togliano, the Parco della Rimembranza di Togliano has a clearly defined location: it lies at the entrance to Togliano in a south-easterly direction, at the junction of the SR356 and Via Sottoplovie. When the park was inaugurated, the names of 26 fallen soldiers from Togliano were placed on trees in the park. The park is therefore located at a specifically designated village entrance and commemorates people connected with Togliano.

A Circular Route with a Fixed Length

The Anello della Val Chiarò circular route is 24 kilometres long. This length is a reliable planning figure if you would like to include a longer excursion in your trip. You can compare the length of the circular route with your own schedule and preferred travel intensity without needing to make additional assumptions about the route, access or current conditions. The 24 kilometres are a fixed distance, but not a time indication. Walking speed and breaks remain personal planning factors; the length alone does not imply a specific duration.

Tastings and Nearby Destinations

Valchiarò has a tasting room for guests at its location in Togliano.
