 Set in the chestnut groves of Val Manubiola, Corchia is an example of a medieval borough of northern Italy.It is a settlement which maintains its medieval nucleus with stone houses, flag-stoned narrow lanes, and archways dating back to the 12th century.The church is dedicated to San Martino although it is no longer used for religious purposes; it presents an unusual façade with a bell tower held up by an archway that crosses over the street.
