Andorno Micca

Tucked along the Cervo stream in the lower Valle Cervo, Andorno Micca is a place whose character is shaped by the steep, wooded slopes of the Biellese Alps. The municipality lies north of Biella, in an area where watercourses historically supported the textile activity for which the wider Biella district is known. Its name commemorates Pietro Micca, the Savoyard soldier remembered for his role in the 1706 defence of Turin; he was born in nearby Sagliano. Stone-built settlements and parish churches reflect the valley’s long-established communities, while the road follows the Cervo towards higher mountain hamlets.
