Patron saint festival In 38 days
Feast of Saint Columbanus
📅 Every year, on 23 November
On 23 November Pezzolo Valle Uzzone celebrates its patron Saint Columbanus, to whom the town's church is dedicated.
Pezzolo Valle Uzzone was created in 1928 by merging Gorrino and Torre Uzzone, and took its name from a third village: Pezzolo, on the valley floor across the stream, cut in two by the municipal boundary. Its people had complained to the Intendente generale in the mid-nineteenth century, but nothing came of it.
Gorrino appears as Gorina in a bull of Pope Benedict VIII of 1014; of its castle Goffredo Casalis noted in 1841 that it now served as the priest's house. In the sanctuary of Todocco a Roman marble slab is walled in, with the she-wolf suckling the twins and the name L. MARIUS; of the old parish church of Torre Uzzone, long ruined, only the bell tower stands.
