If you would love to witness a slice of Italian history whilst on your Cervinia holiday, then take the hour’s journey to the town of Saint Pierre. Located in the heart of the Aosta Valley, Saint Pierre is at the centre of a region filled with beautiful castles, including its own which dates back to the 11th century. The castle sits atop a hill above the town and is one of the most photographed in the area, thanks to its four towers which make it look so enchanting.
