 Legends from Piemonte.
There are bandits who, no one knows exactly why, enter the heart of the people, and whose businesses become legendary and heroic deeds. Meclinét is one of them.
Michele Mamino, said Meclinét, actually lived in Italy in the region of Piemonte between the eighteenth and nineteenth century and chose his action zone in a stretch of mountains in the province of Cuneo.
Despite rewards on his head, Meclinét roamed with the help of the loyal Sachagino, said Dragone, and the protection of a lot of common people.
It was the greed of two cousins to end his life with a cowardly betrayal.
The legend joins real data, and makes Meclinét protagonist of daring flights, bloody revenges and funny adventures.
The most incredible mockery to the damage of justice took place at Frabosa Soprana, a mountain town that we of Italy Family Hotels know very well.
There came from Torino 40 gendarmes under the command of a marshal with the task to capture the brigand.
Protected by anonymity (there was not yet television), Meclinét got in the inn where they stayed and easily began friend of the marshal who first offered him a drink and then invited him to lunch.
With a full belly, Maclinét asked the marshal: "are you glad to have eaten with Meclinét?”, and fast ran away leaving all amazed.
Even for the legend they were his relatives to kill him to pocket the conspicuous reward, but great anecdotes about Maclinét come also from afterlife.
In the safe shelter of the Miramonti, our hotel for families at Frabosa Soprana, in front of a good hot chocolate, there will be who will tell you everything, but everything, about him.
Bino, our supermascotte, says that he knows him very well and that one month ago they have attacked together a vessel at Frabosa Soprana.
When we remind him that people reach Frabosa to ski he replied that it was a snowboat...
If Bino can not compete with bandits of the kind of Meclinét, certainly he can be more spiteful of the sprite Mazapègul, and will enter the legend as the king of the scoundrels. arininchi
