Monferrato: the Story of a Sea That No Longer ExistsWalking through the hills and discovering that millions of years ago there was a sea here
The hills of **Monferrato** preserve the memory of an ancient sea that disappeared millions of years ago. Fossil shells, marine sediments and *Pietra da Cantoni* still emerge along trails and around villages such as Rosignano, Cella Monte, Ozzano, Ottiglio and Vignale. Walking here means exploring a landscape shaped by deep geological history, hidden beneath vineyards, villages and rolling hills.
