36 - Lombis tour

<p>Buse is a modest village at the upper head of the Val d&#039;Astico and is a hamlet of the Municipality of Folgaria, historically linked (for the dairy, the church, the school) to the village of Nosellari above. Its origins, which date back to the German-Cimber immigrations, include the construction of a hydraulic mill, which was followed over time by three others, of which few traces remain today. Nestling in the valley, it shows, in the oldest part, interesting examples of rural construction.</p>

<p>The route runs through a wooded area following the ancient path of the Lombis, the same route that in ancient times was taken, from Nosellari to Buse, for the traditional procession of the Rogazioni maggiori (blessing of the countryside), which took place on 25 April. Worth seeing in Buse is the ancient chapel dedicated to San Vigilio, the oldest part of the village and the beautiful bridge over the Astico torrent.</p>
