History: A Tower Through the Centuries
Built in 1100 AD, the Muìn a Véntu Tower is one of the last surviving medieval towers in Vernazza, a testament to the Genoese heritage of the village. Originally a windmill, the tower harnessed the power of the wind to grind grains, playing a crucial role in Vernazza’s agricultural economy.
From Windmill to Cultural Center
Transformation in the 1950s: Amleto, a prominent figure in the village, added an annex to the tower, blending ancient architecture with modern comforts.
Legacy of Aldo Trionfo: In the 20th century, Italian theater director Aldo Trionfo restored the tower, transforming it into a bohemian refuge for renowned artists, actors, and composers.
Today, the Muìn a Véntu Garden Tower retains this cultural and historical legacy, offering guests a chance to stay in a property rich in creativity and history.
Additional Services
Food Delivery: Available upon request for added convenience.
Rustic Elegance: While the property lacks air conditioning, natural ventilation and the garden provide a refreshing experience.
