Pianavia a little forgotten village with a millenary history

The Sign at the entrance of Village

This site aims to be a little place on the web where to find information and news about Pianavia, a little village in the inland of Imperia in Liguria (Italy). This site is meant as meeting place for anyone who's family has origins in the village or simply with who encountered this lovely place and grow fond for it.

 We would like someway to participate to the renaissance of Pianavia. In fact the village today is not so rich as in the not so far past, when farming of olive trees was convenient. Today Pianavia is poorly inhabited (20 inhabitants) and on any new day stories, anecdotes, emotions risks to disappear forever.

Sorry for not translating the whole site, actually only the main page is in English. Afterall consider that if you come to see Pianavia and its valley, you'll have to speak a little Italian :-)
