Background

Nalles was located on a famous Roman road, the Via Claudia Augusta, as evidenced by the remains of a Roman house discovered only in the autumn of 2005, whose excavations have been underway since the spring of 2006. According to the preliminary assessments of the experts, these are a building that was already inhabited in the sixth or seventh century BC The house, in addition to being equipped with a Roman bath complex, had underfloor heating, and hot air was circulated through a double bottom.In addition, an apse was discovered, and on the northern end of an intact tomb was the skeleton of a woman of about 20 years old was found, among other things, earrings and a series of glass beads were found in her funeral kit.

The lower part of the bell tower of the parish church of Sant'Ulrico is over 700 years old; in the 1990s restoration work was carried out and bones were discovered under the church, now accessible through a marble slab. These findings show that Nalles was already populated in the 13th century, and silver was mined in two mines.

How to get around


What see

Bavaro Castle - Burg Payrsberg
  • Castel del Cigno. The building was renovated in the 16th century, giving it a typical Oltradige style.
The name of the castle (the swan) is also present in the coat of arms of the owners at the time, the Boymont-Payrsbergs.
The building preserves two Roman tombstones found nearby. Nowadays the castle is home to a typical wine cellar, famous for the production of two labels of Cabernet Sauvignon and also for a fine reserve of Pinot Noir and a Sauvignon.
Every year at the castle the starting point for a motorcycle race with vintage motorcycles is held: the Noise Sonderheft.
  • Ruins of Bavaro Castle (on the road that leads to Sirmiano.). The building is mostly in ruins. The keep remains standing, which gives an idea of ​​how massive it was. Built by the Payr (who changed their name to Payrsberg from here) in 1220, it passed to a branch of the Boymont, who enlarged the castle in the 16th century.
A fire - the traces of which can be seen in the only remaining rondello - seriously damaged it in 1600.
