A town with thousands<br />

of years of history<br />

Càrcare<br />

The town’s earliest inhabitants were Neolithic farmers<br />

and hunters, followed by the Romans, who founded<br />

Carium on the Via Aemilia Scauri. Today Cairo Monenotte<br />

is the largest town in the Langa<br />

Savonese with 13,000 inhabitants. The<br />

local <strong>di</strong>alect is closer to Piedmontese<br />

than Ligurian. Napoleon defeated the<br />

Austrians here on 12 April 1796, during<br />

his Italian campaign and the remains<br />

of the trenches can still be seen.<br />

A me<strong>di</strong>eval touch<br />

Cairo’s history can be read in the<br />

remains of its fourteenth-century walls, its tower and<br />

the ruins of its castle. The Church of San Lorenzo is a<br />

national monument, whilst the old residence of the<br />

Scarampi Marquises is known as the “Caminata”.<br />

On Saint Laurence’s Feast Day (10 August) “Me<strong>di</strong>eval<br />

Cairo” is celebrated in the old town.
