From Piazza Cavour — still called 'Ponte' by locals, after the castle's old drawbridge — Via Roma climbs through the village on stone paving lined with wrought-iron balconies and carved doors. Along the way stand the 17th-century Santissima Trinità church with its arcaded side portico, an 18th-century pharmacy (now a shop) that keeps its original fittings, and the Gothic Palazzo Comunale; a cobbled ramp then continues up to the parish church.
