Monday 15 August, during the annual celebrations of the Waldensian churches of the 1st District that took place in Rorà, in Val Pellice, a temporary exhibition has been issued for the three years of my blog.

Hello there! Today I took a little day trip and I moved away (but not that much!) from my beloved Waldensian Valleys to visit the ruins of Mombrone, a little hamlet known today as Montebruno, in the municipality of Garzigliana (Torino).
