FRAZIONE OF THE COMMUNE OF MELENDUGNO

The small village of Borgagne is around 4 kilometres from Melendugno. Here you can see a lot of XVI century Medieval Castlehouses and picturesque case a corte. In the historical centre there is the Parish dedicated to the Purification of the Madonna: it is an aisless church, it has got four altars and a portal dated 1611. The Castle of Borgagne is very interesting from the artistic and historical point of view (there is no paper about its building). It has got a rectangular plant and it includes a pre-existing tower dated 1498. Borgange was ruled at first by the Petrarolos, then by the Zimarra family and finally, in 1616, it passed under the control of the Spinolas.
