THE ORIGINS OF ALASSIO
Alassio, which was founded a thousand years ago, dates back its tradition in the legend of Adelasia, daughter of Otto I, who, with Aleramo, found refuge in the territory of Alassio. First funding date back to the Tenth Century, when some families settled on the hill known as the "Castlé" Madonna delle Grazie, where there is the most ancient emblem of Alassio. Then these families descended from the hills to the beach, giving rise to "Burgun Alaxii".
