Verrayes

Description

The town's name may derive from the Latin word " vetus "(old). It is a mountain village located at over 1000 meters above sea level and consists of 85 villages, of which some are uninhabited, which extend from the Dora Baltea up to the Becca d'Aver. Situated in a superb sunny position, it enjoys a mild climate and the surrounding woods and the lush flora make it a particularly pleasant area for long walks with a direct contact with the environment .
The area was inhabited since the Iron Age, as evidenced by prehistoric findings. Also Verrayes was known by the Romans who invaded and conquered the territories, populated by Salassi, and distribute them among the soldiers. Their local presence is attested by the discovery, near the church Diemoz, of a Roman sarcophagus, made of granite and a slab of a gravestone, fragments of pottery and a tomb near Marcillier.
The feudal lords in 1191 surrendered to the Count of Savoy Thomas I, who in 1227, took the territory of Verres under his protection. In 1238 the Val d'Aosta was proclaimed Duchy by the Emperor Frederick II, in favor of Amadeus II, Count of Savoy. In 1304 the Lords of Cly, Boniface and Godefroy, indebted to the wars between local rulers, imposed duties to their subjects in order to cope with large debts accumulated. The people gave them a considerable sum and in sign of gratitude, they condoned penalties and taxes and appointed a council consisting of 40 men with the task of administering the assets of the House and to appoint a economist and a treasurer. In this way no more wars were allowed without the prior placet of the council of forty. This inability of the Lords of Cly to administer properly their fiefs gave their own vassals, the possibility to become more powerful. In 1315 Boniface, Pietro of Cly and Giovanni of Nus met to define the borders of their fiefdoms. In the second half of the XIX century, a decree of the Royal délégation determined the boundaries of Nus, Verrayes and Chambave.
