Il Borgo di Casaril, Piazza Kennedy 17 - 32022 Alleghe IT (0039) 0437523333 info@alleghe-dolomiti.it www.alleghe-dolomiti.it

The small village of Cesarìl can be reached by climbing from the Piazza Vecchia along the centuries-old path among ancient barns and dry stone walls; once on the paved road, you can admire on the left a sundial placed on a historic house dated 1772, built presumably by the survivors of the landslide that gave rise to the lake in 1771.

 On the right, you reach the small square where the facade of the house "El Casal" dominates, which was originally a ducal palace dated 1360, unfortunately destroyed by a fire; some original parts are still visible today: the two mullioned windows and, on the ground floor, the supporting lintels of the doors and windows.

Beside the square is the Capitello dedicated to Saint John the Baptist: a masonry structure with a larch shingle roof that houses inside a wooden panel, painted in 1986 by Giorgio Gaiardi, depicting the square of Cesarìl and the image of Saint John.


Traditionally, every year on the evening of June 23, the Rosary is recited, at the same moment, a great fire is lit on the summit of Mont da Tos (Col Davagnin).


The ancient fountain of the hamlet has been destroyed but is represented in a mural created by Dunio Piccolin affixed to an old barn from 1821 at the beginning of the path leading to the hamlet of Cordella
