마사카라라 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

마사 카라라의 바다도, 채석장 지역도 보이지 않는 아름다운 초원 고원이며, 이러한 고립 덕분에 마법 같은 분위기를 지니고 있습니다! 카라라 산장에서 약 30분간의 쉬운 도보로 도달할 수 있으며, 30분 더 걸으면 몬테 보를라 또는 멋진 전망을 제공하는 맞은편 "주코 델 라테"까지 오를 수 있습니다. 식사하기에 매우 적합한 장소이지만, 유일한 단점은 물이 없다는 것입니다.

스테츄 스테일레는 크기가 다양하지만 일반적으로 높이가 2~3미터인 직립형 인물 석조 조각입니다. 이 신비로운 예술 작품들은 루니지아나에 거주했던 고대 민족의 문화와 영성을 증언합니다. 그들의 정확한 기능은 학자들 사이에서 여전히 논쟁의 대상입니다. 일부 학자들은 스테츄 스테일레가 고대 신이나 지역 신을 나타냈을 수 있다고 가정하는 반면, 다른 학자들은 그것이 장례 기념물이나 기념비였을 수 있다고 제안합니다. 조각된 인물들은 종종 종교적, 천문학적 또는 의식적 의미를 가질 수 있는 동심원, 컵 모양의 함몰, 선형 조각과 같은 수수께끼 같고 추상적인 상징을 특징으로 합니다. 이러한 상징에 대한 이해는 고고학자 및 전문가들의 연구와 학습의 대상입니다.

A beautiful route with a visit to the village of Cerreto Alpi, ascending via trail 649 B and returning via trail 670, which requires extra attention to avoid losing the trail. Excellent views of the surrounding mountains. Worth a hike.

There is a strange magic in this beautiful meadow

Perhaps the best preserved in Lunigiana, high on the hill overlooking the Magra plain. Still belonging to the Malaspina descendants, it has dominated the town since the 12th century and is at the center of numerous legends. With a quadrangular plan, it has four round towers, a semicircular bastion, two internal courtyards, patrol walkways from which you can see the sea and an outpost in the direction of the village. It was originally protected by a drawbridge. The fortress appears as a medieval structure, in fact expanded in the 14th century by Spinetta and Galeotto Malaspina and renovated several times over the centuries. The main entrance welcomes us with a marble shield depicting a dog with a flowering thorn in its mouth, symbol of the friendship between the Malaspina and the Scaligeri of Verona. From the top of the castle you can see the elongated structure of the village, arranged along the hill. There are many legendary stories about the castle of Fosdinovo: from Bianca Malaspina to the Marquise Cristina Pallavicini The Marquise Cristina Pallavicini, who governed the fiefdom for a long time after the death of her husband Ippolito, seems to have been an evil and lustful woman and had the habit of throwing her lovers from the trapdoor at the foot of the bed in her trap room with the torture chamber below. Another legend linked to the castle of Fosdinovo and much older than that of the Marquise Bianca Maria Aloisia, daughter of the Marquis Malaspina, who fell in love with the stableman of the castle and, because of this feeling, was walled up alive together with a wild boar, a symbol of rebellion against the family, and a dog, a symbol of loyalty towards the beloved. Legend has it that, walking through the castle, you can still perceive the presence of the unfortunate princess! Another reason to visit the Malaspina castle is the fact that tradition has it that the “great poet” Dante Alighieri stayed in its rooms, called to Lunigiana in 1306 by the Marquis Franceschino Malaspina.

The Piagnaro Castle is a fortress built in a strategic point to protect the Apennine passes and around which the first medieval nucleus was formed, built around the year 1000. For centuries it has been an integral part of the city's defensive system. In its thousand-year history it has undergone numerous destructions and subsequent reconstructions that have brought it to its current appearance. The Castle maintained its military function until the end of the 18th century. Its name derives from the so-called piagne, the gray sandstone slabs used in Lunigiana to cover the roofs of buildings, including that of the castle.

The Ponte della Cresa is a stone bridge built in the 14th century and despite the frequent flooding of the Verde river, it has maintained its original structure to this day. The bridge connects the new neighborhoods with the historic center. The bridge is located along the Verde river near Porta San Francesco. Under the arch of this bridge, on January 31, the characteristic fire of San Geminiano takes place. The Ponte della Cresa is considered by many to be the true symbol of the city of Pontremoli. It is also interesting to note that the name Pontremoli derives from the Latin 'Pons Tremulus', which means 'unsafe bridge'. This was a term used to describe the original conurbation of the city.
