The Iron Bridge of the old Lauria railway, located near the Lauria Alta cemetery, owes its name to its proximity to this site. This metal bridge is a historical reminder of the passage of the Lagonegro-Spezzano Albanese railway, which bypassed the town of Lauria Alta with impressive engineering structures, such as viaducts and tunnels. Today, the bridge is part of the cycle/pedestrian path that follows the old railway line, representing a strong link between the local industrial heritage and the surrounding natural landscape, offering a fascinating perspective on the history and memory of the area.

The old Lauria station is part of the historic Lagonegro-Spezzano Albanese narrow-gauge line, inaugurated in sections between 1915 and 1931 and operating until the 1970s. This branch of the railway crossed the picturesque landscapes of southwestern Basilicata, connecting small villages and navigating challenging terrain with rack railway sections and numerous viaducts.

Castelluccio Superiore, nestled in the picturesque Mercure Valley, welcomes you with a historic center brimming with medieval charm, cobbled alleys, and panoramic views of the Pollino National Park. Strolling among ancient stone houses and intimate squares, you'll discover a true "terrace" overlooking the valley below, where history and nature intertwine. The village is home to the Ethnobotanical Conservatory, a research and documentation center dedicated to applied botany and ethnobotany, a hub for scholars and visitors interested in local herbal traditions and the promotion of biodiversity.
