The oldest part of the town, with a medieval layout, was built on a hillock. The medieval village has remained practically intact and, although it has been remodeled over the centuries, it has not been touched by contemporary urbanization.
Due to the wealth of vineyards and trade, the strategic importance and the beauty of the place, Neive “alta” was always chosen as the residence of the landed nobility and the rich bourgeoisie, acquiring splendid palaces and acquiring the nickname of «pais di sgnuret “(” Town of lords “).
Today Neive is included in the club of the most beautiful villages in Italy, wanted by the Council of Tourism of the Anci (National Association of Italian Municipalities).
