LOCATIONS 'VILLA FRANCISCAN MONASTERY XIII
A few miles from Cairo, along the road to Cortemilia, there is a remarkable testimony to art: the former Franciscan monastery dating from the thirteenth century. Tradition has it that the foundation has been San Francisco. And in all likelihood the episode has a historical basis. In 1213 the Saint had in fact embarked on a journey to Morocco to attempt to evangelize. Arriving in Cairo miraculously the daughter of Otto of Carretto deaf since birth. The noble then acquitted by giving the order of the "Minor" a piece of land to build a monastery whose church was consecrated to Our Lady of the Angels. Over time the structure was enlarged.

ARCHAEOLOGY
The roots of Cairo Neolithic and Roman are reflected exactly in the area surrounding the church. During occasional excavations brought to light near the area once known as San Donato, a number of Neolithic stone axes.

Argenta, The story of a reclamation

friendly, paths for birdwatchers, many visitor centers and now a fair : The area of \u200b\u200bthe delta emaano-Romagna is without doubt among the best organized of the country. The only discordant note: the sign, careless, especially with regard to the museums.

II Po Delta is without doubt one of the best places to live in Italy one day en plein air, especially in spring.

Soltanto tra Ferrara e Ravenna sono decine le proposte per una gita in bicicletta tra lagune e canneti (bellissimo il percorso sull'argine del fiume Reno da Boscoforte a Volta Scirocco, con vista sulle valli di Comacchio) o per una passeggiata con il binocolo al collo: a Punte Alberete dove un magnifico bosco allagato è rifugio di aironi e usignoli.

Meno nota, invece, è la presenza di alcune strutture museali che arrichiscono e completano un weekend di sport e natura. Come a Mesola, ultimo borgo del ferrarese prima del confine con il Veneto, dove il Castello estense è sede di un itinerario espositivo davvero utile per capire il territorio.

On the ground floor antique maps reveal the forms taken in the delta over the centuries, the first floor photographs and testimonies raccontanbo the journey from source to mouth of the Po, the second plastic aquariums and the Environmental Education Centre provide valuable insights for rconoscere ecosystems area.

But is the eco-museum of Argenta, differs from the seaside town on the border between the provinces of Speech, Ravenna and Bologna, in the best way to illustrate the relationship between nature and culture. Sites and museums tell the story of a land that has always lived in close contact with water: Water that once the floods of the Po and the Rhine poured over fields and villages and today è aspirata, trattenuta, incanalata grazie al lavoro di bonifica realizzato nei primi anni del Novecento.

Il cantiere idrovoro del Saiarino, tuttora funzionante e trasformato in uno splendido museo di archeologia industriale, parla della grandiosità di quei lavori e dell'incredibile complessità di un processo tuttora cruciale per la vita della regione: stupefacenti le pompe in ghisa, le stesse che Vittorio Emanuele III inaugurò nel 1925. e molto interessante la parte aperta nel 2002, che comprende le centrali che alimentano le idrovore.

Una volta usciti dal museo, il paesaggio circostante acquista un altro significato: si guardano con altri occhi i canali, gli argini, le chiuse, le valli (cioè bodies of water).

So, riding around the valley and downstream Santa Campotto, crowded with hundreds of birds, you think back to the function of the expansion basins, the basins where the water is conveyed in the event of flooding is too large to be contained in the banks. And visited a short distance from Saiarino, the Museum of the valleys of Argenta, dedicated to the history and nature of the area, we understand that everything - past and future, men and animals - is tied to a single thread.
