Chiesetta di Malga Mare

It was built by the workers who were putting up the Careser dam.

This little church was not commissioned by a bishop or a confraternity: it was built around 1931 by the workers employed on the construction of the Careser dam, that is, the men who in that same year were closing off the reservoir at an altitude of 2,603 metres, a little higher up.

Once the building site was finished, its fate was that of many service buildings: used as a storehouse, it gradually fell into disrepair from the 1960s onwards. It was restored in 2005.

Today in the valleys

Just a moment...

Gipthe bearded vulture of Valli del Noce

Hi, I am Gip. I am a bearded vulture: my species had vanished from the Alps in the 1930s, and the first one born in Trentino in at least a hundred and fifty years took flight from Val di Rabbi this past 16 July.

Ask me about places, the valleys or the people who work here. I answer with what is in our pages: if I do not know something, I will tell you.
