Bussana Vecchia: A Village that Breathes Art and History

Aggiornamento: 22 set

In the heart of Liguria (and a short drive from Il Sogno) lies Bussana Vecchia, a medieval village abandoned after an earthquake in 1887. But what was once a ghost town is now a thriving oasis of creativity! In the late 1950s, the village was rediscovered by artist Mario Giani, who founded a vibrant artist community. Artists from all over Europe came together to transform the ruins into a place where art and freedom are at the center.

Today, Bussana Vecchia is a unique destination for those who love art, culture, and a touch of adventure. Its charming streets are lined with artworks, and everywhere you feel the bohemian atmosphere. Even the old, roofless church adds to the magic of this special village.

However, life here comes with challenges. The residents, who have rebuilt the village with their own hands, are fighting for recognition as the rightful owners of their homes. Their collective, “i Resilienti,” symbolizes the resilience of this community.

Want to experience a piece of authentic Italian art and history? Bussana Vecchia is a must-see during your stay in Liguria! Come and be inspired by the creativity of this enchanting village! Also read the other articles >
