GUARENE
Guarene is in a strategic position to visit the amazing hills of Langhe and Roero recently entered in the UNESCO World Heritage, it is very closed to Alba and here you will be surrounded by the best vineyards. Straight in front of you there is the Castle of Guarene, an ancient manor clearly inspired by the Baroque style of Filippo Juvarra, but it has been realized on the design of the Count Carlo Giacinto Roero and completed by the architect Filippo Castelli between 1726 and 1778. Inside it is possible to admire the so-called "Chinese rooms", the 18th Century frescos by Francesco Casoli, Giuseppe Palladino from Guarene and by Guglielmo Levéra from Turin. The paintings, the furniture, the precious library, the external chapel and the park reveal an extremely sophisticated composition.
The Castle of Guarene is an imposing building, now turned into hotel, gourmet restaurant, museum and SPA; it has replaced the previous castle, which has been the residence of a branch of the Roero Family for several centuries. It proposes to visitors a meditation on the quality of the old times through an audacious medley of style and emotion.
Besides panoramic views on the Tanaro Valley and the Roero hills, the picturesque old town centre of Guarene offers other attractions too. The parish Church of Ss. Pietro and Bartolomeo, the Churches of S. Annunziata and S. Michele and the sanctuary of Madonna delle Grazie are absolutely worth visiting. Inside these buildings it is possible to admire remarkable works of art (by Guglielmo Caccia called the Moncalvo, Giovanni Claret, Francesco Casoli, Michele Antonio Milocco and other artists). Contemporary art exhibitions are periodically organized in the
Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Palace. There is a permanent contemporary art exhibition in the town picture gallery.
