The Torre del Borgo and its garden in the center of Lavagna.
In the center of Lavagna, a little hidden, there is this beautiful public garden that hosts the Torre del Borgo.
I covered it by chance a few years ago and now every time I'm walking around the Tigullian town I pop in to take some photos.

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.
