AM Club | On the Trails of the Lombards

The visit will start from the archaeological site of Castelseprio, a Unesco heritage site since 2011, where Goths, Lombards and Carolingians left traces of their presence, making it the juridical-military centre of a large territory. It will also be possible to visit the noble oratory of Santa Maria foris portas, a short distance away, guardian of a cycle of frescoes counted among the greatest early medieval pictorial masterpieces in Europe. The visit will end at the Monastery of Torba, the first FAI property, whose tower was one of the defensive elements of the complex.
