Badarina: this word summarizes the history of the Grimaldi family. This combination was born in the 30s of the 19th century with Nonna Clara (Bruna Grimaldi’s mother), born in 1939, who, together with her sisters, used to live in a farmhouse in a small village in the centre of Badarina. In 1947, her family moved to the red brick house built on the top of the ridge, where it still stands, to dominate Badarina. Today, it is the only house of the small village that still exists: in the 60s the Bersano family bought the land and planted it with vines.
