Case Valdesi and Diaconia Valdese
In the Waldensian guest houses we host all travellers and the proceeds are used to carry out social welfare projects for the Diaconia Valdese.
The Case Valdesi accommodations are part of the Diaconia Valdese, a non-profit ecclesiastical body that places the dignity of human beings at the centre of its work, ensuring respect and care with an absolute secular approach to anyone who benefits from the services offered, without distinction of gender, ethnicity or culture.
The Diaconia Valdese, which is based in the Valdesi Valleys in Piedmont, coordinates and manages the assistance and reception facilities of its church, the Chiesa Valdese, in Italy.
The Case Valdesi are non-profit structures open to everyone, and offer the chance for a quality experience at affordable prices.
