Situated in an enchanting natural basin known as "Busa", Bersone (637 m a.s.l.) has about 300 inhabitants and has maintained the typical urban arrangement of the Giudicarie area.
The village stretches on a morainic terrace around the square with a granite fountain and some attached houses with iron gratings, stone portals and wooden superstructures. Almost all houses stand near the main road which is slightly away from the centre.
The church dedicated to the Saints Fabian and Sebastian dates back to the Middle Ages and was rebuilt in Neoclassical style in the previous century. Another attraction worth visiting is the Museo della Grande Guerra (Museum on the Great War).
Several festivals, such as the evening procession on the All Saints' Day, the ceremonial sowing of gardens, Good Friday and the tradition of untying and ringing bells after their Lenten silence as a blessing for a successful harvest on Holy Saturday are interesting cultural highlights.
