Aisone

Aisone sits at 834 meters elevation in the Valle Stura, covering 36.99 square kilometers of mountainous terrain with forested areas, rocky outcrops, and clear mountain streams flowing through the valley.

The town features a 13th-century Romanesque campanile and evidence of Neolithic settlements in nearby caves, with historical connections to ancient Alpine trading routes and pastoral traditions dating back several centuries.

Local residents celebrate the patronal festival of Natività di Maria on the first Sunday of September with processions and community gatherings, while maintaining traditional Piedmontese customs and Occitan language heritage.

The municipality operates under postal code 12010 with telephone prefix 0171, accessible via regional roads connecting to Cuneo and Turin, offering limited public transportation due to its remote mountain location.

Aisone contains anthropized natural caves that showcase ancient human modifications and Roman aqueduct remains, demonstrating centuries of engineering adaptations within the alpine environment.
