Archeological sites of Cucuruzza and Capula
The site of Cucuruzzu has been discovered by François De Lanfranchi in the 70’s after works for the opening of a granite quarry in Lévie, near to the San Laurenzu Chapel. The Casteddu of Cucuruzzu is made up of a protohistorical village built in the early Bronze Age around 1800 BC, a circular tower built around 1500 BC, a monumental complex built after the destruction of the tower. Today, it is classified as an historic monument (this is a French classification) and listed on the World Heritage of UNESCO. A pavement path adorned with oaks leads to the medieval Chapel of Capula from the Bronze Age too.

Medieval Party of Levie
The second edition of the Medieval Party of Lévie, organised by the Museum of the Alta Rocca area took place during the French days of Heritage in September 2012, 14th and 15th. This manifestation carries on as an indispensable element of the culture and economy of the area. We have to thank the inhabitants and shopkeepers who disguise themselves with medieval clothing and decorate their houses and shops. As a result, they could welcome cheerfully and good-humouredly more than 6 000 persons
