The Garden of the Tower of the Borgo di Lavagna
The garden of the Torre del Borgo in Lavagna.
Very recently I discovered this beautiful garden in the heart of the town of Lavagna. A place to relax surrounded by greenery.
Dominating this space is the imposing Torre del Borgo, an imposing defensive construction that now houses an art gallery.

Here's where the tower is located:
According to some sources, its construction, perhaps by the noble Fieschi family, dates back to the 16th century as a watchtower or defense tower. After several centuries in service for the village, where it was even used as a residence with a noble chapel, it is now home to the “Galleria artistica dell’ardesia” and the “Collezione Alloiso”.

I refer you to the Lavagna tourist promotion website: lavagnaturismo.it. This is the official website of the town's municipality: comune.lavagna.ge.it.
If you are looking for a nice portal that talks about all of Liguria I invite you to visit the official website of the Region: lamialiguria.it.
If you are looking for some books about the beautiful town of Lavagna I recommend: Intra Siestri e Chiaveri: Adriano V dei Fieschi tra storia e finzione and I Fieschi. Storia di una famiglia. If instead you want to have a guide that talks about Liguria and Tigullio I invite you to see: Genova e il Tigullio by Lonely Planet.
