Main sights

The guaita of Travale

The village is well known in philology and literature because of its guaita, a phrase reported in a document of 1158 («guaita guaita male, non mangiai ma' mezo pane»), said by Malfredo di Casamagi, keeper of the castle, complaining about the bad treatment of the guards, who were deprived even of bread. The sentence is considered one of the first known examples of Italian vernacular language.
