a history, to be discovered
In Molveno and the surroundings, magic happens: you can go back in time and immerse yourself in history, but you can also get to know interesting works of modern and contemporary art. Visiting the old Taialacqua sawmill is a unique opportunity to rediscover the ancient trades. At the request of that-time parish priest Father Taialacqua, the community built it in the XVI century as a cooperative aimed at improving the economic conditions of the population. Outside the sawmill is a visitor center which provides lots of detailed information about the sawmill and the wood-related economy of Trentino.
Art, science, architecture and innovation are the cornerstones of a territory which has emphasized the importance of its history over the centuries.
