The refuge is dedicated to all the partisans of the V Division "Justice and Freedom" who fell in the war of liberation. In 1976 the building was destroyed by a fire but, also thanks to the contribution of numerous volunteers, it was rebuilt and completely renovated while maintaining its original appearance

City advice
Getting around
Getting around by bus is possible but not easy
You can move along the Valley in the inhabited centers by bus, but not reach the mountain huts and the most characteristic places. to reach the other valleys or cities you have to take the bus to Pinerolo (20 min) and leave from there.
Getting around
I reccommend the site Val Pellice Outdoor
Private and group guided excursions, or many tips and itineraries to travel independently
Don't miss
The Freedom Day on February 16 night
The anniversary for the whole Waldensian (and Valley) community recalls February 17, 1848 when King Carlo Alberto signed the Patent Letters, where civil and political rights are recognized to the Waldensians. Like the customs of the time, the previous evening there is dancing, singing and drinking around the famous bonfires
