Vignale Monferrato

Lots of words can be said about Vignale Monferrato... from "once upon a time" to today.

Behind the "Vinealis" (of the past) - Vignale today, the population's tenacity and efforts have overcome many difficulties: from clashes and devastation to a plague epidemic, people  dedicated to viticulture and faithful to tradition.

Part of the Piedmontese triangle Alessandria-Casale-Asti, the town stands in the heart of generous lands; it grew and changed, from a Romanesque garrison to a medieval fiefdom under the Marquises of Aleramo, who built a castle there, then under the Paleologi, and finally, it passed to the Callori counts who maintained possession of it until the nineteenth century. Palazzo Callori, their residence, was purchased by the Region in 1979 and transformed into the headquarters of the Regional Enoteca.

Famous until the last thirty years, the salt-bromine-iodine water of the Fons Salera was known since 1584, at the time of the first Gonzagas. Used over the centuries for cooking food and fought by the Salt Monopoly, it became a center of tourism and attraction in 1903, contributing significantly to the economic promotion of the locality.
Intensely advertised, analyzed several times and also studied together with its geohydrological basin, the water from this spring, in the last part of the last century was also sold in Turin, through a shop located in Corso Regina Margherita.

In addition to the already mentioned Palazzo dei Conti Callori, it is recommended to visit the Church of the Beata Vergine Addolorata with the Convento Dei Servi di Maria (at the foot of the village in front of the Parco della Rimembranza), built by the servants of Mary between 1470 and 1505 in Lombard-Gothic style as evidenced by the powerful terracotta façade punctuated by buttresses. The interior houses a Madonna of the "Seven Sorrows", carved into a pear tree, the beautiful choir with twenty inlaid stalls and a fresco of the Madonna del latte by Giovanni da Crescentino dated 1505-1510.

What to do, where to go: Vignale and surroundings.

There are some bikes in the garage of the house for going on a mountain bike ride.
