A rich history
Did you know that the Aosta Valley has Roman roots? The Emperor Augustus named the town Augustus Praetoria after himself - today we call it Aosta, the capital of the area. After many years of changing ownership, in 1927 Aosta became part of the province of Torino and in 1945 the autonomous region of the Val D'Aosta was created. There are still traces of the Roman past scattered throughout the Aosta Valley, most of which are in Aosta itself.
