Church of San Martino (Busca)

Highlight • Religious Site

Entitled to San Martino di Tours, this small church stands at the top of a sunny hill and probably where, once, there was a Roman necropolis. The current building dates from around the 17th century.

Busca is today a city of about 10,000 inhabitants, consisting of a historic center, configured in the space of the ancient walls, and the numerous surrounding hamlets. It is located in a fortunate geographical position, at the foot of the morainic hill that surrounds it like an amphitheater and that, sheltering it from cold winds, gives it a mild climate appreciated since ancient times.

Monument to Marco Pantani on the Colletta di Rossana

Highlight • Monument

Placed in May 2016 to greet the passage of the Giro d'Italia and pay homage to the "Pirate" Pantani, this plaque is an initiative promoted by the municipality of Busca with Costigliole Saluzzo and Rossana and with the support of the passionate Mario Berardo. Created by the Verzuolo craftsman Massimo Mondino, the work is a destination for tourists and enthusiasts.

Devil's Bridge of Dronero

Highlight • Bridge

Like any self-respecting city dating back to the Middle Ages, Dronero also has the Devil's Bridge. Legend has it that the Droneresi asked the Devil for help to build the bridge over the Torrente Maira. He accepted on condition that he was offered the soul of the one who would first cross it. The astute inhabitants of Dronero, however, when the work was completed, had a dog go to test the architectural work. The Devil ran away in anger.
