The territory of Toirano is located in the valley of the same name, on the right of the Varatella stream and at the confluence of the latter with the Barescione. It is dominated by Mount San Pietro dei Monti (891 m), carved laterally by the valley of the Vero stream, where almost eighty large and smaller cavities open, including the famous Basura caves ("bàsura" in the local dialect means "witch") and Colombo caves, natural caves with ancient traces of prehistoric man. The valley probably hosted a settlement already in Roman times, and later became part of the Byzantine Empire's limes (border) for defense against the Lombards. The oldest area of the village of Toirano is called "Turaccu" (Italianized to "Toracco"), which in medieval Latin means "foot of the tower." Still preserved today is the characteristic medieval village, of which the bases of some towers remain, as well as the bridge called "Giaire" with three full arches with squared stone piers over the Varatella stream, dating back to the 13th century, topped by a votive shrine dating back to the early 19th century, in addition to some sections of the ancient city walls. Toirano also hosts the splendid ethnographic museum and offers the opportunity for a relaxing immersion in the greenery of trails that lead to a breathtaking view just a few kilometers from the Ligurian Sea.
