The Borgo Tower and its garden in Lavagna

La Torre del Borgo ed il suo giardino in centro a Lavagna

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”.

The Garden of the Tower of the Borgo di Lavagna

Il giardino della Torre del 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.

The beautiful Torre del Borgo in the centre of Lavagna

La bella Torre del Borgo nel centro di Lavagna in Liguria

The beautiful Torre del Borgo in the center of Lavagna in Liguria.
I have been to Lavagna dozens of times but only recently did I discover that in its center there is a garden (a little hidden) that houses this beautiful tower.
The tower, which for years was the tallest building in the town, was renovated a few years ago and is now in splendid condition.
