The Michelin Guide's review
Set deep within a silent, green valley, this abbey is one of the finest examples of Piedmontese Romanesque-Gothic architecture. Its beautiful terracotta and sandstone façade leads into the real jewel of Vezzolano, the splendid jubé (footbridge between the navel and chancel) dating from 1189 and adorned with beautiful polychrome low-reliefs. The elegant cloister contains the remains of 13C-14C frescoes.
