Magnano

Magnano has served as an agricultural community on Piedmont’s Serra d’Ivrea since the Middle Ages. This long morainic ridge, formed by the former Baltea glacier, marks a transition between the Biella plain and the Alpine foothills. In the historic centre, the Ricetto di Magnano preserves the form of a fortified medieval enclosure, with narrow lanes and stone buildings. The hamlet of Bose is home to the Monastic Community of Bose, an ecumenical Christian community founded in 1965. Its quiet rural setting remains connected to the wider Biella area, long associated with textile manufacturing. Discover Magnano’s place in the Biella area by browsing webcams nearby.
