San Lorenzo at Kreas

San Lorenzo at Kreas is an ancient mining site in the heart of the “gold district” of Alagna Valsesia. Inside, the large millstones used to crush the gold-bearing ore extracted from local mines can still be seen. This complex represents a valuable testimony to the history of gold mining on Monte Rosa, one of the most important in the Western Alps.
