Romagnano Sesia, is a municipality in the province of Novara with a great agricultural tradition and is very renowned for the production of DOC wines from the so-called Novara hills among which the famous Nebbiolo Ghemme DOCG stands out.

The Municipal Administration and the Department of Culture and Tourism, wanting to celebrate the Year of Italian Roots in the World, have decided to deepen the stories and tales of emigration that characterize this land.
So, thanks also to the collaboration with Italea Piemonte and the MEV (Ethnographic Museum of Lower Valsesia), they launch a collection of stories and materials.

Are you originally from Romagnano?
Do you know people who have stories of emigration and are from Romagnano Sesia or are there other ties between Romagnano and the rest of the world?
Then this is the right opportunity!

Obviously root-themed!
