The Medieval village of Fabbriche di Vallico

The territory of Fabbriche di Vallico is covered by a rich vegetation made by chestnut-trees, agricultural cultivations and lands used to pasture.

Entered the town of Fabbriche di Vallico it is possible to reach the Saint Jacopo Church, built around the beginning of the XIII-th century on the place where once an ancient religious convent rose. Inside the convent it is also possible to admire a copy of the "Cave of Lourdes".

Interesting to visit are also some fine fifteenth-century palaces, all equipped with gardens and galleries. Particularly suggestive is the ancient bridge that joins the two banks of the torrent and thus the two parts of the village. The bridge is surmounted by a building once used as a customs house, for being the village at the boundary of the Dukedom of Modena and the Republic of Lucca.

Valuable is also the Saint Giacomo Church, placed in the close locality of Vallico di Sotto. The church has a Romanic origin and its interior, with three aisles, saves a fifteenth-century tryptich portraying an "Our Lady with the Child and Saints", painted by Bernardino del Castelletto (XV-th century).
