Bard: the fort and the village
(Bard (AO)- Val d'Aosta)

A few kilometres after the Piedmont border, in Valle d’Aosta, the Dora Baltea Valley narrows in a deep gorge.
On the right, quite merged in the rocks, the austere and imposing Bard fort can’t pass unnoticed.
It was built around 1000 on previous Roman remains, as others that fill the entire valley as the Bard ArcheoParc demonstrates.
Skilfully restored, today the fort is a museum.
Certainly to take the comfortable lift and to visit the fort is not to be missed, but a real surprise is the discovery of the old medieval village quite hidden at its foot.
The village is one of the most suggestive and well preserved of the whole valley.

In the village you can admire beautiful monumental buildings as the House of the Bishop, the House of the Sundial, Valperga House, Challant House, Ciucca House and the elegant palace of the nobles Nicolle, the last Counts of Bard.
A village not to be missed and possibly to be visited not in a rainy day as unfortunately happened to me.
