Cigliè
Built on the hills at the entrance of the so called Alta Langa monregalese, the town offers a wonderful view on the Langhe and the Alps.
Placed on the top of a hill, it’s gathered around the castle (built between the XII and the XVI centuries) and the parish church of saint Peter and Paul (1670).
Interesting are the statues of the two saints, more than two meters tall and weighing 370 kg.
Older is the chapel of saint Rocco, built near the castle.
The main activities here are agriculture and cows and sheep farming.
Among the local products, note chestnuts, potatoes, fruits and wine.
