Holiday apartment in Robella between hills and history

Near the entrance to the manor house stands the parish church of San Giacomo Apostolo. It is of older origin and has been remodelled several times over the centuries. The Cappella di San Francesco was built in the 16th century and has a carved, painted and gilded wooden altar. The church of Sant'Eusebio stands in the Cortiglione district of Robella; it dates from the period between 1500 and 1600 and was once the chapel of the castle. The historical range of these religious buildings therefore extends from older origins to structures dating from the 16th century.
