Things to Do  

A typical Neive house

A typical Neive house, Neive

 JLBG Says:  This photo shows a typical house of Neive and the region, built in bricks and covered with the Roman tiles. In Neive, I have not caught any interesting chimneys. The few that are on this photo are not worth a close-up ! 

The city Hall of Neive

The city Hall of Neive, Neive

 JLBG Says:  The city hall stands in a street parallel to the one on the spine of the hill (sorry, I have not written down the name), a little lower. It is a three levels building with an ornemental front. As the street is narrow, it is difficult to have the whole of it on one photo...

Doors of Chiesa San Michele

Doors of Chiesa San Michele, Neive

Chiesa San Michele

Chiesa San Michele, Neive

 JLBG Says:  Chiesa San Michele (Saint Michael church) stands also on Piazza Negro, next to the parish church. It is also a baroque church but built in the 17th century by the “castellamontiana confraternita” (castellamontiana brotherhood). It is now no more consecrated.

La Contea: Offensive and Insensitive Experience

La Contea: Offensive and Insensitive Experience, Neive

 jsp32 Says:  We dined here during trufffle season in October. The food was adequate, though not exceptional. Our real objection was that although we alerted the kitchen about a potentially fatal nut allergy, the kitchen served food which contained nuts. When we gently complained about...

Restorante La Contea: Restorante La Contea, Neive

 JLBG Says:  We have not been to Restorante La Contea as it was too early and we had planned to go to La Gibigianna in Barbaresco and made a reservation (see my Barbaresco page under Castagnole Lanze. The menu seems to be excellent but expensive. This is the only place where they have... 

Shopping

Bottega del vino di Neive: Bottega del vino di Neive, Neive

 JLBG Says:  I took this photo because I found that the design of the Bottega del vino di Neive (Wine shop of Neive) was very elegant with the double loop that linked the vine grape to the glass of wine and with a reminder of the crenellated city wall ! Enlarge to better appreciate !We... 

Warnings Or Dangers  

Caution, school

Caution, school, Neive

 JLBG Says:  I have a crush not only for chimneys but also for school road signs. In Neive, I did not shoot any chimneys, then I had to shoot a school warning ! It is the most recent Italian road sign of the type and I have been unable to find any of the older ones. Nevertheless, I like...
