Triora

Triora
is one of a collection of ancient hill towns that grace the lovely Argentine
valley in the region of Liguria, close to the French border. It is surrounded by
dramatic mountain scenery with facilities for walking, rock climbing etc. Much
of the architecture dates back to the 12th century, but its period
of greatest fame was during the 16th century when a number of witch
trials were cond
ucted
by the Inquisition. The town boasts an excellent museum of witchcraft, and to
this day has a powerful association with witches. Some
decedents of the original witches can still be seen in the town to this day!! (www.comune.triora.im.it)
