The romantic village of Orta San Giulio with a tour guide

Visiting the most romantic village in Piemont. Wandering  in the narrow streets. Sailing on the lake to the Island of the silence and the meditation.

1. 1

   Piazza Motta

   1 hour

   The small town of Orta San Giulio is a one of the top destinations for tourists visiting our region. A favourite place for romantic souls, the village is a maze of picturesque streets and little squares with craft boutiques, antique shops and lively cafés. At the center of the town you will find Piazza Motta, pulsating heart of the life of the village, from which the connections for the Island of San Giulio begin; it overlooks the Broletto or Palace of the Community (on the facade you can admire the city crest), in which in the Middle Ages the power was exercised. In front of the Broletto begins an uphill road called 'Motta' from which you reach the parish church of Santa Maria Assunta (1485).

   San Giulio Island

   The pearl of Orta is the island of San Giulio: the little Island of San Giulio is dominated by its Romanesque basilica.From the church you can walk along the narrow street that goes round the whole of the island: the “way of silence and meditation”. We will visit San Giulio Island and the beautiful Church with the medieval pulpit.
