From here, you will find yourself in the <\/span><b>historic centre<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the village, where you will feel transported back to times of ladies and knights, of horse fights and court balls.

The museum promotes and recovers timeless values such as faith, culture, art and traditions. It houses works of great historical and artistic quality, including the <\/span><b>Astile Cross<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, attributed to <\/span><b>Nicola da Guardiagrele<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, an incomparable artefact shaped in silver foil on a wooden support.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then head towards the hamlet of <\/span><b>Varano<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to visit another jewel of Torano Nuovo, the <\/span><b>Church of San Massimo a Varano<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, built around the 10th-11th century and already listed in 1066 among the properties under the jurisdiction of Montecassino. The structure is an example of Abruzzese Romanticism; the west fa\u00e7ade features a beautiful portal, on which there must have been a Montecassino or noble emblem of more recent times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But that&#8217;s not all! In addition to its historical and artistic peculiarities, the village is renowned for its culinary and wine specialities: it is a <\/span><b>Paese del Gusto<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Town of Taste), <\/span><b>Citt\u00e0 del Vino<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (City of Wine) and, above all<\/span><b>, Capital of Montepulciano d&#8217;Abruzzo<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To fully enjoy its excellent wines and other delicacies, we suggest you come to Torano Nuovo during its famous <\/span><b>Festival<\/b> <b>of wine, sausage, macaroni and fried cheese <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in August.
