Cherasco, Information and images | Town
Cherasco Not far from Barolo, to the west, on a hill, lies the friendly little town of Cherasco. Already Napoleon found the place as ´Italy´s most beautiful corner´. Culinary Cherasco shines with its ´Baci´ (kisses): delicious pralines made from dark chocolate and hazelnuts from the Langhe, as well as recipes for preparing snails. The place is the ´capital´ of snail farming. The International Institute for Snail Breeding has been here for 30 years. Cherasco is also very connected to the antiquarian bookshop. Strolling under the arcades in the old town, you will come across many old workshops with wrought iron shop signs selling objects, paintings and antique furniture of considerable value. For more than fifteen years, Italian and French antique dealers and collectors have been meeting here on the streets of the city. The city´s artistic-historical heritage ranges from the fascinating calendar of the city tower, to the triumphal arch of the Madonna of the Rosary and the numerous churches and noble palaces, to the Visconte Castle, built in 1348, which offers a magnificent view of the hills of Novello, La Morra and I´m sorry. The church of S. Pietro with its spolia - marble heads - on the facade deserves a special mention. which, as an antique market, become an exhibition center for timeless objects, collector´s items, antique furniture, rare wines, ceramics, stained glass, old books, toys and model making.
