Discrete and elegant, the village emerges from the eastern coast of Lake Orta. Is a small village. The town counts less than 1,000 inhabitants. The heart of the city center is inside of a green false-plain which the mountains surround. We are talking about Miasino, a unique destination for those who visit Lake Orta. Miasino is a focal point for those who want to enjoy nature.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n One of its two districts, <\/span>Carcegna<\/b>, oversees the lake. The other one, <\/span>Pisogno<\/b>, sits on the slopes of Mount Formica.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Despite its compact size and its closeness to more notorious places, like Orta San Giulio and Ameno, Miasino has very ancient origins. During the <\/span>Middle Ages<\/b>, Miasino was part of the great episcopal feudal property of the Riviera di San Giulio.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Indeed, was a rich town during 1600 and 1700, and it was thanks to the presence of middle class and noble families. For this reason, the territory is full of residential houses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Moreover, vaunts ancient historical findings, which date back to the Iron Age. Moreover, archeologists found Etruscan heirloom, mostly pottery and earthenware in <\/span>Campello<\/b>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In other words, Miasino vaunts a double soul: a historic one and a noble one. And you should discover both.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Among the main attractions, we find <\/span>Church of San Rocco<\/b>. Architect <\/span>Francesco Maria Richino<\/b> realized the project for the rebuilding of this church. The facade of the Church was finished in 1933, when Architect Carlo Nigra took over the project and decided to respect the original drawings. Inside the Church, one finds seventeen hundred marble altar, and important paintings and frescoes. One also finds precious Baroque and late-baroque work of art, which local artists realized. Miasino and its inhabitants have to thank several people who migrated to Milan and Tuscany for the Church\u2019s interiors and its beauty.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n As a result, the Church was proclaimed a national monument.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Another must-see is <\/span>Villa Nigra.<\/b> The mansion vaunts origins from 1500, but it was widened during the 17th and 18th century. Villa Nigra is one of the aristocratic villas, which is today a property of Miasino\u2019s Municipality.<\/span><\/p>\n Finally, the Parish and <\/span>Church of Pisogno<\/b>, a district of Miasino, Chiesa di San Gottardo, vaunts a spectacular Baroque facade. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row row_height_percent=”0″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”0″ top_padding=”2″ bottom_padding=”2″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″][vc_column][vc_column_text] Miasino and its rich history Miasino is a town […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":5406,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[60,49],"tags":[135,156,133],"yoast_head":"\nIts history<\/b><\/h3>\n
