Discover Triora, a village in the Upper Valle Argentina, known as the Witches’ Village. Through the historic center, its vaulted streets, and narrow alleys winding between tall houses and ancient, now-abandoned palaces, we reach the Cabotina, once a meeting point for witches and today a viewpoint offering fantastic views of the surrounding mountains. We then head toward the top of the village, where the ruins and the central tower of the Triora Castle stand. Here, the bronze sculpture of the Triora Cat, created by the sculptor Elena Rede, has recently been installed.
Let’s now venture through the narrow alleys of Triora, passing from one painted doorway to another, and make our way down to the Church of San Bernardino, a small church with a stone-arched portico, where you can admire old frescoes, some of which are attributed to Giovanni Canavesio from Pinerolo.
For those wishing to delve deeper into the history of Triora’s witches, we recommend including a visit to the Museo Regionale Etnografico e della Stregoneria (Regional Ethnographic and Witchcraft Museum) and the Museo Civico e Diffuso (Civic Museum), located in the historic center of the village.
Before leaving Triora, a stop at the village bakery is also a must to buy and taste Triora bread, famous for its round shape, along with other baked goods.
