Medieval Tirano













Visited Great Grandfather's ancestral house At Villa di Tirano, Lombardia, Sondrio, Italy


Gary's cousin, Joan Hatfield, with Gary & Joan checked out the former home of the Borserio family at Villa di Tirano, Lombardia, Sondrion, Italy.  Our great grandfather, Giovanni Borserio,  migrated to Australia from the village in 1864.  The structure of the house most probably dates back to the 17 century and is currently being restored and modernised by its new owner.  The photos below are taken in and around the house.
