A Return to the Past

Villa Pomela Relais

Our structure has its roots in the 17th century, when it was built as the country residence of noblewoman Giovanna Pomela Tassisto. The villa was renovated in the late 19th century by Milanese architect Rovelli, who was able to preserve the original charm, enriching it with elements typical of the belle époque style.

Every corner of Villa Pomela tells a story. The classic and refined furnishings, enriched with objets d’art and precious decorations, create an atmosphere of times gone by. The spaces, spacious and functional, are designed according to 19th century architectural canons, offering our guests an elegant and comfortable stay.

Fort of Gavi

The origins of Gavi Castle are uncertain, but it is assumed that the natural rock on which it stands was already fortified in pre-Roman times. The first documented mention dates back to 973, and in 1191 Emperor Henry VI donated the Castle and the Borgo di Gavi to the Republic of Genoa. Despite various changes of ownership, including the Visconti and Sforza families, the castle remained under Genoese rule until 1815. Transformed into a fortress in the 17th century, it was later used as a prison and, since 1946, has been the subject of restoration work by the Soprintendenza per i Beni Culturali.

Museum of the "Campionissimi"

Dedicated to the legendary cyclists Fausto Coppi and Costante Girardengo, it is located in Novi Ligure in a former industrial warehouse from the early 20th century. The evocative layout, designed by Mauro Porta, features a central track recounting the evolution of cycling, flanked by rooms with exhibits on the Milano-Sanremo and historical bicycles. The ‘Sala dei Campionissimi’ displays memorabilia and testimonies of the life and career of the two champions, while multimedia spaces allow visitors to learn more about the history of cycling. The museum also hosts temporary exhibitions and areas for visitors, such as a shop and library.

Novi Ligure Castle

The tower of Novi Ligure Castle, erected in 1233 at the behest of Frederick Barbarossa, is the only remaining part of a larger fortification destroyed during the War of the Austrian Succession. 30 metres high, the square tower was later reinforced by the Visconti family and passed under Genoese and Austrian control before returning to Genoa. Remains of the 15th century walls can still be seen around it. The castle is also known for the legend of the Headless Horseman and is part of the Lower Piedmont Open Castles circuit.
