two Val di Taro villages
(Tornolo, Compiano(PR) - Emila Romagna)

We took advantage of the first spring days to visit Tornolo, a village in Val di Taro on the border with Liguria.
We admired the fountain, the monument to the stone masons and some sculptures placed on the walls of houses; but above all, the panorama, looking out over the valley and the hills, is truly splendid and well worth the visit.
On this occasion, we also returned for a brief visit to Compiano (photo 19 and following), of which we spoke about in another special ‘The medieval village of Compiano’ [see].

A short history:
We limit ourselves to a brief history of Tornolo, referring for that of Compiano to what has already been published.
The territory of Tornolo, in pre-Roman times, was among the settlements of the Ligurians.
It is mentioned in the donation of the feud from the bishop of Piacenza to the church of San Savino in the 11th century.
It was subject to the Malaspina, Fieschi and Landi families.

In 1682, Andrea II Doria Landi ceded the territory to the Farnese family who, from then on, shared the fate of the Duchy of Parma and Piacenza.
