  Nice old tower (or what remained of it). The property cannot be entered though, an appointment is required.

  Una volta all'anno in occasione della manifestazione "assalto alla torre", è possibile visitare e salire fino alla sommità del monumento. Vista mozzafiato! Il gruppo di Bolzano Novarese (I viaggiatori nel tempo) tutti travestiti rievocano gli antichi fasti e la battaglia di assalto alla torre! Unico appunto: andrebbero tagliate alcune piante che ormai troppo alte offuscano il magnifico e pittoresco panorama del lago d'Orta.

  Once a year on the occasion of the event "assault on the tower", you can visit and climb to the top of the monument. Breathtaking! Bolzano Novarese's group (Time Travellers) all disguised evoke the ancient splendour and assault battle to the tower! The only note: some plants that are now too high should be cut, obfuscating the magnificent and picturesque panorama of Lake Orta.
