Quart

“Among the traces
of the first settlements”

Sitting in a sun-kissed plane, the municipality of Quart extends across a vast area dotted with numerous villages and hamlets, which boast ancient origins, dating back to the beginnings of humanity.

The remains of the Neolithic necropolis, in the Les Cleyyes area at the village of Vollein, are considered one of the first traces of human settlement in the Aosta Valley. More than 60 chest-shaped tombs, from the ice age period, and rupestral engravings dating back to the II millennium B.C.
