    The Pietra Serena Quarries of Brento Sanico, located in the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, represent one of the main historical deposits from which Pietra Serena, a gray sandstone essential to Tuscan architecture, was extracted. This stone, typical of Florence's historic architecture, was used for isolated decorative and structural elements such as columns and cornices.
