 Peveragno is 12 km far from the provincial chief town Cuneo, just over 20 km far from Mondovi and from the Turin-Savona highway.Peveragno area, before the Christian era and the subsequent conquest by the Romans, was inhabited by Celtic-Ligurian people whose presence is proven by iron tools and ornaments found on Moncalvino hills (two Paleolithic axes and one from Neolithic) and Castelvecchio.There are numerous archaeological findings on this hill, where you can still see stretches of the city walls dating in a later period (Lombard period).
