Legend had it that the tower was not just a symbol of status, but also held a magical secret within its walls. It was said that hidden deep within the tower was a chamber that contained a powerful artifact, rumored to grant immense wealth and prosperity to whoever possessed it.
Many brave adventurers and treasure hunters had attempted to uncover the secrets of the Tower of Pramotton, but none had succeeded. The tower was surrounded by a mysterious aura that seemed to repel all who dared to approach it too closely.
Despite the warnings and tales of doom that surrounded the tower, one day a young traveler arrived in Pramotton. This traveler, named Alessandro, was drawn to the tower by tales of its mystery and magic. Determined to uncover the truth behind the legend, Alessandro set out to explore the tower and unlock its secrets.
As he ascended the winding staircase of the tower, Alessandro felt a sense of foreboding and excitement. The air grew colder, and the walls seemed to whisper ancient secrets. Finally, he reached the top of the tower and entered the chamber where the artifact was said to be hidden.
There, in the dim light of the chamber, Alessandro saw a shimmering object resting on a pedestal. It was a golden amulet, adorned with intricate symbols and glowing with a faint light. Without hesitation, Alessandro reached out and grasped the amulet, feeling a surge of power and energy course through him.
In that moment, the tower began to shake and tremble, as if awakened from a long slumber. The walls of the chamber faded away, revealing a breathtaking view of the countryside below. Alessandro realized that the true magic of the Tower of Pramotton was not in the artifact itself but in the beauty and wonder of the world that surrounded it.
And so, with the golden amulet in hand and a heart full of newfound wisdom, Alessandro descended from the tower and set out to explore the world beyond Pramotton. The legend of the Tower of Pramotton lived on, not as a tale of riches and power, but as a reminder of the magic and mystery that could be found in the most unexpected of places.

Well, it was a tale and it has nothing with reality, but I posted it here because I like it. In this period of incessant rain and also the danger of a serious storm today and tomorrow it seems to me that it is nice to add a little romance to this evening.
All the photos though are from my walk to the actual medieval tower of Pramotton, a small village near Donnas in Aosta Valley, Italy, on the left in the photo above. I parked my car there and went to see this tower which was first mentioned in the 13th century. At the time it belonged to the lords of Bard and served for the control of the territory.

The forecast gives good weather for next week and perhaps it will finally be possible to make the first excursions and resume walking. Do you already have a list of destinations to reach this year? I have some papers with the places to visit scattered all over the house. I have to find everyone. However, there are still castles nearby and near Aosta I haven't been to, mines to visit near Brusson, and at least some Walser villages such as Rimella.
