location details: Vessalico


VessalicoOrtThis is an agricultural town in the upper Arroscia Valley. The old town centre is characterised by a large number of aedicula, capitals, portals and inscriptions dating from the fourteenth and fifteenth century situated along the narrow alleys and vaulted passageways. Its name comes from the Latin word "vexalium", meaning "submissive". In 1232, the inhabitants, who were dedicated to olive cultivation, moved to the left bank of the River Arroscia and joined with other towns to form Pieve di Teco in a strategic position along the mule track that controlled the traffic from the Riviera to Piedmont. In the next century, it was conceded by the Clavesana family to the Republic of Genoa and remained under its dominion for centuries.


VessalicoOrtszentrumJust above the town, among the cultivated olive terraces, you can see the ruins of the beautiful Romanesque church of Sant'Andrea, the oldest in the valley (second century). In the Baroque church of Santa Maria Maddalena (fourteenth century) some frescoes have been discovered that were hidden by whitewash during one of the last epidemics. The original iron bars used for bolting the door of the building have also been preserved. The central-plan eighteenth-century oratory of the Visitazione is also known as the oratory of the Madonna del Ponte, since it is situated where the road passes over the river and enters the town.


VessalicoKapelleOlive and vine cultivation (this is Pigato and Ormeasco wine territory), as well as garlic-growing, are the main activities of the inhabitants of Vessalico, who celebrate delicious-tasting garlic in a centuries-old festival that was initiated by public decree in 1790.

der nächste gescheite Carefour war eben in Frankreich, also wenn man schon dort ist, sollte man auf jeden Fall Nizza, Monaco etc. besuchen. Vielen Dank für die schnelle Abwicklung und Ihre Mühe mit dem Warmwasser!

Die Ausstattung war landesüblich, zweckvoll und entsprach unseren Vorstellungen. Der Balkon war großzügig. Es hätten einpaar Balkonstühle mehr sein dürfen. Wir waren mit 6 Erwachsenen und 1 Kind. Es gab 2 Stühle auf dem Balkon. Da wir den Balkon nur abends zum essen nutzen nahmen wir die Küchenstühle. Wir haben wünderschöne Abende auf dem Balkon verbracht. Es gibt auf dem Weg von Albenga zum Ferienhaus einen kleinen Winzer. Der hat wunderbaren Rotwein und Grappa. Im Ferienort gibt es alles was man braucht, Lebensmittelladen, Bäckerei. Das Restaurant Mariella sollte man besucht haben. Hier gibt es landesübliche Gerichte und Speisen (kein Touristenfutter). Wirklich empfehlenswert. Wir haben 3 Stunden geschlemmt und am Ende pro Nase rund 20,- ? bezahlt. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis top. Ein Urlaub bei dem alles gestimmt hat.

Ausstattung ok. Wir möchten noch einmal betonen, dass uns das Buchungsportal sehr gut gefallen hat. Auch die Urlaubsregion ist sehr schön.

Die Vermittlung ist perfekt, aber sie müssen das offensichtlich neue Objekt ein wenig aufpeppen, es lohnt sich! Ein günstiger Rotwein oder eine kleine Flasche Olivenöl zur Begrüßung wirkt sehr einladend ohne viel zu kosten. Man fühlt sich dann wirklich willkommen.

Pieve di Teco ist schön. Für die gedankliche Reisevorbereitung könnte man in "Google Earth" einen Marker auf das Haus setzen.
