Sassi

Villages and Hamlets

Sassi di Sopra appears perched on a rocky outcrop where the Renaissance Church and the bell tower stand out, built on an overhang of a few hundred meters. From there, it is possible to admire a good part of the Garfagnana and the Serchio Valley.
A little out of the village, before reaching Granciglia (or Grancia), there is a very characteristic small church, called “Madonna della neve”, from which you can enjoy another excellent panorama.
Inside the village, we also find an ancient washhouse, still used by some women of the village to wash clothes and sheets.
