Description
The municipality of Ramiseto is enclosed within a wooded basin, threatened by landslides, which spreads out between the peaks of Mt. Ventasso, Succisio Alpe and the right bank of the Enza and a the center of which different branches of the Lonza torrent converge in a fan shape.
The municipal administrative capital rises on a small arenaceous ridge situated to the left of the Lonza torrent.
The modern nucleus of Ramiseto spreads out to the bottom of the antique hamlet, where old buildings flank for a brief stretch the road leading to Succiso – Mondello.
The buildings are distributed in a scaled fashion along the slope arranged on a hillside line which leads to the parochial church.
The historical – architectural patrimony of Ramiseto includes a building of great interest, situated on the western edge of the town.
The construction is indicative of 15th century architectural models use in the high Reggiano Apennines even if restoration operations have in part modified the building, which up to recently retained a wide arch portal.
The characteristic raised defensive portal is visible, leading to the residential floor and bearing on the architrave a few symbolic bas-reliefs and the year "1495".
Other numerous constructions retain original architectural characters. The different dwellings are flanked by double layered haylofts with slab roofs and exposed stone walls.
A praiseworthy sacred image in Apuano marble bearing the year "1775" stands out inside a niche which faces the road in the direction of the Enza valley.
