Between the ironworks and the waterfall there are tons of wild garlic on the embankment in March/April (we were there at Easter 2022)! Keep your eyes open and take something with you for a delicious wild garlic soup or - butter!

Built in 1797 on behalf of the Campioni brothers firm (already owner of the iron and steel plants of Begna. S, Nazzaro val Cavargna and Carlazzo) and included a smelting furnace for ordinary cast iron operations and artillery objects. A forge with mallet to perfect the same artillery objects and to thin the iron into Ladin.
