History

The name, literary meaning oath valley, derives from a popular legend regarding the daughter of a country gentleman who suicided in the tower of the local castle. She was locked in the tower by her father, due to his disagreement to the love feelings of the girl for a soldier. She screamed day and night and, before dying she made an oath to search his lover in all the valley. The legend says that it is possible to hear, still today, the girl's voice in the castle.
