Plan for Nature and Outdoor Activities in Your Morozzo Holiday Apartment

The cycle path connects Crava and Morozzo over a distance of three kilometres and runs through the reserve area. This specific distance is more useful for your personal planning than a general description of the landscape. It allows you to structure a stay with a particular focus on cycling or walking without losing sight of the town’s cultural attractions. The reserve’s visitor entrance on the Strada Provinciale 422 provides another specific point of reference in Morozzo.

Castles, Churches and Frescoes

The Castello di Morozzo is the historic residence of the family of the Marchesi di Pamparato. At the same time, it is an 18th-century castle that has been restored for conservation purposes. The Cappella di Santo Stefano preserves a late Gothic fresco cycle from 1400 depicting the life of the saint. The origins of the Chiesa Parrocchiale della Natività di Maria in Morozzo date back to around the year 1000. In Morozzo, you can therefore encounter several clearly distinct historical periods.

Another art-historical stop is the Santuario del Brichetto, also known as the Chiesa di Santa Maria. It preserves 15th-century frescoes by Giovanni Mazzucco. The origins of the sanctuary date back to the 12th century. The fresco cycle depicting the life story of the Madonna is considered one of the most fascinating and complete in Piedmont.
